Don't think the person who made the challenge can win it, but if it goes too long without anyone completing, they can change the challenge.

Can't find any small towns that list population here in VA. I did however, find that there are some pretty strange towns out there--such as Yogaville (complete with an Ashram). They did NOT advertise that there were less than 250 residents though.

Satchidananda Ashram - Yogaville was founded by Yogiraj Sri Swami Satchidananda in 1980. The ashram is the international organizational headquarters of Swami Satchidananda's documented teachings, located in the county of Buckingham, Virginia.
The primary vision of this world-traveled guru Yogiraj Sri Swami Satchidananda (1914-2002) was interfaith understanding as a vehicle to world peace. To this end, with his vision and much work from thousands of disciples and admirers, the LOTUS (Light Of Truth Universal Shrine) was constructed and inaugurated in 1986.

I don't think this one is going to be met. I could be wrong.

There are a handful of towns within 200 miles of me that show less than 250 pop., but Google streetview does not show their signs to reflect as such.

Don't misunderstand me, it's a GREAT challenge, I just think it is going to be WAY difficult.

well I found one and even rode out there, it's close to me, but they don't have a sign. Taylor Landing, TX population 230

I'll keep trying but I think this one's going to be tough.

SafetyMan,

This is our neck of the woods, I can not get there for a few days. They do have a sign, have seen it many times. FYI

I did my fair share of google mapping and although there are plenty of towns that fit the requirements near me, none of them post a sign to brag about it. Closest one I could find is about 4 hrs from here with a population sign that is updated every year to keep track of how close they are to horses outnumbering the people.

next challenge: your bike and it's twin but it can't be someone you know or a bike sitting at a dealership honor system

My little town is also pretty small so I doubt I will find any many baggers here, let alone albino baggers. I'll try again next time.

p.s. Poor guy had to take the rest of the day off to ride his Harley out to the boonies:-)

I thought you had to have a glove hanging off of your grip for this one?


Nice sign
