Protest dually noted

But while we all have no doubt you where at Angusvale in East Gippsland Victoria there is no permanent fixed into the ground Town welcome type sign like the other pics taken.

So it's a respectful NO !!! But a very easy fix to make it a winner.

I.e. Go to your nearest town sign preferably in your own town in the busiest time of the day wearing your wife's best race day hat and grab a pic of you and the bike infront of the sign

that would make you the winner of this round for sure

.... NO !!!

The first chance I get I'm heading to see my solicitor.

Right outside his office is a "Welcome to Alphington" sign.

PS. I don't see the purpose of a 'wildcard', if it can't be used for this type of situation.

Just don't forget to ride the bike and take the picture out side and post it here before you part with your credit card inside

"A reminder to all, your wild card can be ANY town sign starting with ANY letter at all, presented in a humorous way"

You got the humour right. You got the name right. But you missed the key part of the "wild card". It has to be an actual town sign, not your residence at the site of a long abandoned town's site.

I'm sure your Solicitor will concur (for a fee).

With Pockey's agreement, a substitute "A" town ...........

GUARD

Gisborne:

Upper Plenty:

Any Town:

Rawson:

Diggers Rest:

Do some poor the quality, ya might need click on some of the photos to go to Photobucket, click on the "+" in the circle on the lower right outside of the image, and then on the "+" in the circle inside the lower right of the image, this will take you to a clearer image.

Mmmmm, hoping to make the next 'solution' a bit quicker, we'll go with ULP.

Bahaha. Any town. That's funny. This should be the stock wildcard photo. Haha

Biggles · « **Reply #56 on:** January 12, 2014, 10:59:24 AM »

Come on Pockey. I think you'll have to pay that one.

Besides, it starts with "A"!

Pocket STocker · « **Reply #57 on:** January 12, 2014, 12:16:23 PM »

Williamson sent it by PM this morning for confirmation and WE HAVE A WINNER !!!!

Well done Williamson, nowhere is there mention of photoshop in the rules for the Wild card entry

Pick your word Sir !!

Can we please have a word without a "U" in it???? There is no town starting with U (accessible by road in the wet season) in the NT!

ST2UP · « **Reply #60 on:** January 12, 2014, 05:11:31 PM »

Use your "Wild Card" option and it can be any town sign of ANY letter you wish......one per word as per the rules......

Come on Wendy come out and play

WendyL · « **Reply #61 on:** January 12, 2014, 06:35:12 PM »

I'm aiming to get out sometime this week. I only get to ride every 2nd week at the moment since I have a foster child with a disability week on week off. Can't exactly leave him home alone and go out riding. Can't even ride to and from work since I have to drop him off at vacation care on the way.

then again, we're being threatened with another monsoon trough this week, with possibility of a cyclone by Wednesday.....

You may have a chance to get a pic of the ST in front of an "Under Water Town" sign.

If it comes to that, the ST will be staying safely under the carport. I ride in downpours if I don't have a choice, but it's not my favourite pastime.

No my dear Sir, that was the lovely town of Kentucky and it starts with a K
