Scavenger Hunt anyone?
03/17/10 at 08:04:21
 
Since riding season is getting back into swing, I thought about something I saw on another site and wondered if anyone would be interested...  Someone pick something to find, and take a picture of it with YOUR BIKE INCLUDED.  Such as... going through a drive-thru window (can even specify at McDonalds or a Bank, or something)...  or a picture of your bike with a bridge in the background...  whatever.

We can make up our own rules.  The site I saw it on also required that the member/rider be included on the bike.  But whatever.  I think the bike has to be included to avoid finding pictures online and such.  Obviously, it can't be too specific, like a particular monument or building or whatever, but should be something that most everyone could have access to.
 
Winner gets bragging rights and has to pick the next one.

Sounds fun, I'm game. But you'll have to clarify the rules and what exactly are we looking for.

I'm game.  (or gamey, not sure which.)

Is that *using* the drive through window, or actually going through the window?  All the ones I know of are a bit small....

the other site (VolusiaRiders) rules are:
- no photoshopped pics
- pics used only once, new pic for each target
- no old pics (past rallys, vacations, etc)
- you, your bike, and the target in the same pic.

But whatever anyone thinks is reasonable... to get participation...

they have done things like taking a picture with a policeman.... or with someone on roller skates.... whatever someone can come up with.

Oh, I guess we'll have to choose our words carefully too ...   Grin  Grin  Yes, "Using" would be a better term...  Maybe "Visiting"?  (just to snap a pic!)

Well, since not everyone is able to take a self picture of themselves with their bike, I think just the bike in the pic with the target would work. we have all seen pictures of most of our bikes so it would be just as good for identification as a self pic. That would be the only change I think is needed.

I think we all could identify Yonuh's bike parked at a adult beverage store while doing 70 on the superslab.  But many are still stock to point that no one's going to be able to tell them apart.

Those w/o unique bikes will need to be identifiable.  consider helmets, placards or mascots either temp or permantly screaming.

If you're a solo rider like me any suggestions on how to get all 3 in the photo at the same time. I can't see me lugging around a tripod and a Nikon DSLR.

Good question, I am lucky that my camera has a remote so self pictures are easy for me. I reckon you can always flag a passer by down and ask them to take a shot of you or if your camera has a timer maybe try to park the bike somewhere close to a cage or something so you can set the camera down on a hood pointing towards you.

Very good point Versy, not all of our bikes are so easily identifiable. But not all of us wear helmets either, so maybe, like for instance piglet can have here little piglet toy sitting on the seat when she takes her snapshot, and others can do the same, something that would identify with them. Yes, the mascot deal I think would work best.

Ok, everybody go out and buy stuffed Piglets...  LOL

Or maybe even a piece of paper/index card with your user ID or "SS.com" written on it?  Something to show that the pic was taken for this hunt ??

Since this is your idea, what is our first task piglet? I'm about to go out for a ride because it is too nice out to spend my last day off cooped up in the house on the computer.

Ok, just to get us rolling.... Let's see if you can take a picture of your bike with [beside/behind/on/under/near] a sign with the word "FIRE" in it.  
** NOT a homemade sign, it must be an actual street sign, store sign, etc...... and we must be able to see the bike and the word "FIRE".
