Hopefully you can see my gloves on the bars. I was a little rushed by a guy who thought I was "impeding traffic!"

This is in downtown Provo, Utah during America's Freedom Festival.

Let's see a picture of your bike in front of a fireworks stand, gog on bars or seat.

Default Happy Independence Day!

I hope this qualifies - not really a 'fireworks stand' as it's a year round store (they all are around here as far as I know). Didn't want the thread to sit idle over the holiday weekend! Don't blow anything up!

If this is acceptable, let's stick with the theme - your bike with something dated 1776 or earlier - a building, sign for a historical site, grave marker, whatever.

Have a happy 4th!

Dan

This one is going to be hard. I live in one of the oldest cities west of the Mississippi. It was one of the first settlements west of the Mississippi and the first person to settle here was in 1788. It was incorporated in 1833...

I am in middle Tennessee and the earliest Tennessee settlement is in East Tennessee and dates to 1779. I imagine they were too busy staying alive to bother making a plaque to mark their settlement date.
This is a good one for the New England riders to get. Ride on guys.

Hey guys - Sorry - having spent my my whole life in the Northeast, I hadn't considered this issue farther south or west. How about if we add anything US centennial or bicentennial related as also acceptable?

Thanks. Guess that is a real dead end street. Nothing 1776/1876 around here. tp

San Antonio began being settled in the early 1700's but the city is 200 miles away. Any SA riders know where notable signs are? tp
