... How about a fairly popular biker bar and grill or watering hole that is out in the sticks.....
Since I'm in the East side of Central Florida and Biker Bars are a dime a dozen I'll let somebody else chase after this challenge.
Within a short ride we have many well known spots like the Cabbage Patch, Iron Horse Saloon, Beaver Bar, Broken Spoke Saloon and the Cheyenne Saloon just to name a few. These all can be considered pretty much out in the sticks but all are located on fairly major highways.
Hope someone can find that really neat place way out somewhere.

I get it that you have hit all the places in your immediate area. There are plenty within 20 miles of me. I am always looking for a new place and have found many hidden treasures that way. How about finding a new one way out there somewhere?
...How about a fairly popular biker bar and grill or watering hole that is out in the sticks. Not something in a strip center or just down the street, I'm talking out in the boonies. We have a bunch of them around this area. Gloves on yer seat.
J&S Roadhouse West Milford, NJ
This is as "out in the boonies" as it gets in Northern Jersey
The second and third pic are proof of boonies.
It is probably open now, it wasn't this morning when I went by.
Next Challenge: A building that is still in use (or appears to be) but that is in serious need of repair. If you can see missing boards, bricks or basically any building material, where enough is missing that animals and weather can get in. I saw a bunch of barns like that today (while out in the boonies).

Ah yes, the old Mountain Rest Inn. If memory serves correct the shirts used to say, Ugly Owner, Bad Food and Warm Beer.
Do they still have a hutchinhitching post for the horse riders that stop in?

Was out riding yesterday with my Lady and passed this place and said to myself, have to come back and get a pic. The Challenge has been up for a while, so this morning I got the Pic and I will presume it qualifies:
Had to wait for a break in traffic as I had to shoot from middle of road and had to hurry, worring about getting shot...this is Florida you know..
Have no idea what this building was used for but someone lives in the trailer, so I doubt if anybody actually lives or works in this building but there is a satelite TV antenna on the building so who can tell what is inside. However, I'm sure the weather can blow through and crittters can go in and come out as they please, as stipulated in the challenge.
So let the next challenge begin...drum roll please.... OK, everyone has one somewhere nearby so this will be easy; Show me your bike at the Entrance Sign to a Flea Market. Include a couple of pics that shows it is a Flea Market, so best taken when it is open if possible. Just be careful, the drivers attending Flea Markets can be stupid. And you all know the rules G,G or H on the bike.
This challenge may take some time unless you live in Florida. Looking at the weather maps, everywhere to the North of Florida seems to be experiencing nasty weather. We are going to get some cold by weeks end but not all that other crap, thank goodness.
No Flea markets here, but got my 1st ride of the year in.
Stopped by the local HD shop for a break and a pic.
Snow the next 3 days, followed by temps in the 20s, then 40s and rain.
Looks like its back in hibernation again....
Edit:
Posted on the road because last time I got beat by the drive time home. The Mrs and I were out riding a little today and we're close by this area. I wasn't 'certain' where the flea market was .. but we found it.
Interesting fact ... They also have an uncertain tavern, not the same owners.
Suppose this qualifies even though it's closed at this time .. let's look for something worn and abandoned but still standing.

<deleted several shots that clearly met the challenge>
When someone clearly meets the challenge, as you just have, I don't think anyone minds if you just go ahead and post the next challenge.
Next challenge please.
