On nice days, it's common to see people laid out on the little beach, or in the grass, or in the river. Folks kayak, canoe ride, or ride inner tubes down this river all the time. The waterfall is lit at night with nice colors, it's a community gathering point, for sure. Pretty cool, actually.




If this is accepted, the next challenge is your bike, with your helmet on the seat, next to a painted rock. The rock must be larger than your bike.
I thought of this when I recently saw a big rock on the side of the road that someone had painted to look like a big frog. It is even kind of shaped like a frog, LOL.
That looks like a really cool place! Nice looking bike, too.

Wish you had done this awesome challenge during the summer - I know of 2 of these (a pig and an elephant) that are something like 250 miles from me and would make an awesome excuse for a day trip! Unfortunately the weather here is in "no ride" mode likely for the duration.

Thanks for keeping the thread alive so I can live vicariously through it while looking out the window at the snow banks.

Thanks Guys.
Along my ride today, I took a couple of pics of the "Frog Rock" I mentioned earlier, just an example of what we are looking for here.




Again, the next challenge is your bike, with your helmet on the seat, next to a painted rock. The rock must be larger than your bike.

I am sure there are some interesting ones out there.
Now, somebody just needs to get a bike in front of one - with their helmet on the seat!

Nice try, close.
See if you can find a BIGGER rock.
They are out there.
I know where a quarry is that the name of the business is painted on a HUGE rock. Something like that would do, also. And, you are correct that if you don't wear a helmet, gloves on the seat will do.
Good luck!
