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!

Got up to about 70° here today, ice blue skies and nice. Had a great ride. If someone doesn't find a great painted stone soon, I will announce another target I have in mind.
Hope all are doing well, looking forward to seeing more bike pics with interesting scenery.

Perfect weather today - 70 degrees with blue skies. A google search for painted rocks found very few near me. But did find this one about an hour away - Frog Rock near Keystone Lake / Mannford. Nice ride out there, but the last half mile or so was a dirt road, thankfully well maintained. The rock is pretty impressive. Thanks for this cool challenge. I never would have even known something like this was around here.















Next challenge: Your bike with a water tower in the background. A couple of examples I got on the way back home.

Awesome job, that`s what it`s all about, riding and finding things you never seen ( or rode right by ) LOL

Ironic, another frog, LOL, I never thought a frog looked like a rock, or a rock looked like a frog. LMAO

So next your bike at a Veterans Club: ie DAV, VFW, PH, extra credit if you can get a Veteran in the picture.

Here's my water tower pic. It's from a ride a week or two ago so I'm just posting to share.


And a couple from last year.

It's not the white stuff that deters me it's the clear stuff I hate ice. seen the video on how to lift a bagger by yourself but I've never seen one on the how to lift it in the snow I think it might be a little more difficult
