Mexico is correct, Sir. ;-)

Just need to name the city.

[connick]

La Paz

[Jerry]

You sir are in Mazatlan.

The statue is of Pedro Infante.

[Rman of 237]

I was wondering when someone would start this thread. I'm just posting to get the emails.:mrgreen:

[Lone Rider]

You sir are in Mazatlan.

The statue is of Pedro Infante.

Bingo :clap:

Take 'er away.

[RacerJohn]

wow, impressive, Jerry of Elgin! I could see a flag way in the back, and I was guessing that was a flag of Mexico... but I had no clue where....

I was going to post, "uh...who is Pedro Infante?". But, I did a quick bit of research. I am now among the top 100 Pedro Infante Experts in Texas, :lol: ha, ha..(ok, "...would you believe, I can at least spell his first name?" - in my best Maxwell Smart accent).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedro_Infante

That link led to this bit of fantastic archival knowledge: a clip from actual movie of Mr. Infante on the motorcycle depicted in the statue:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcXdcrN2ROY&feature=related

(Maybe these two could have started their own on-line Forum: TWM's! )

Are those bikes Harley's, Indians,... or what? I am too young to know such things.,...:lol:

[m8rt]

Thanks for the video RacerJohn.

A riding buddy play air castanets, that's what I want!

Looking for the Highway number. Notice that the tank and saddlebag on the yellow bike are damaged. That's what can happen when a deer hits the side of a bike.

http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu323/daddyhog/DSCN0177.jpg

[Lone Rider]

One...?

[daddyhog]

You got it Lone Rider. US 101 or 1 in Southern Oregon. Lone Rider has the ball.

[Lone Rider]

There's an old Hunter Thompson saying that should apply here. Something about when things turn weird, the weird turn pro...:)

Whar is it?

[connick]

You got it Lone Rider. US 101 or 1 in Southern Oregon. Lone Rider has the ball.

Not to pick nits, but if it's in Oregon it's US-101. CA-1 ends at Leggett; it doesn't run all the way up to the Oregon border. However, I belive "PCH" will cover both the length of Highway 1 as well as 101 north of Leggett. Just clarifying for future reference; we now return you to your regularly scheduled thread. :mrgreen:

I'm really anxious to get one of these.

Its a parking lot with no discernible landmarks. It could be in Nova Scotia, Scotland, or Greenland for all I can tell.

Hints, or pictures showing landmarks would make it more fun,

This game is illegal. You've got to show your bike in the picture for the game to be legitimate ;-)

[CBAT]

Different rules...:)

But i was there on a bike trip.

Quote the OP on this thread. Different rules outside of TX. ;-)

[CBAT]

Jenny Lake or Coulter Bay?

Please, only one guess per reply.

[CBAT]

Is Coulter Bay on Jenny Lake? I dunno. Anyway to keep things moving Jenny Lake, Grand Teton National Park is correct.

Tracker has it.

[Tracker]

To get back up to speed:

Even more tips:
according to Google, by highway, 263 miles from Plano, TX

The lake was called Lake of the Narrows back in the 60's. I enjoyed skiing under this bridge and learned to slalom on this lake at the ripe old age of 7.

I don't think the Barber people would dig me riding my bike up to the status. ;-)

[ed29]

Hey Andy, which one did you get correct, making it your turn to post?

[TerraXpeditions]

Sonora desert?

[jonny rotten]

I don't remember the road # but I think it is North of Durango, Mx.

Close enough! It's actually SW of Ciudad Durango on Mex40, aka Espinaza del Diablo. The ride from Mazatlan to Durango City is like Tail of the Dragon, only it goes on and on for 150+ miles and there are nearly vertical drops of thousands of feet within a couple steps from the edge of the pristine blacktop. The scenery changes from lush tropical mountain range to the desert shown in the picture right when you cross over the top of the continental divide.

[bigdon55]

I have a picture of the same road but we were standing on the far side of the picture looking back South!
I tried to post it but it would not work.

Cagvia is correct on both counts. The picture in my Avitar is a dead giveaway as it was taken at the top of black bear in front of the sign.

[Cagiva 549]

No takers? And here I thought that tower behind me in the 2nd shot was one of the most recognizable buildings in motorsport. Here is another shot, taken a day or two before the ones above. The fencing visible on the RH side of the first pic I posted is the same as that visible to the left of the road in this one.
