So I tend to learn new things when I am out riding and today was no different. I picked up the tag in Estes Park, Colorado and was riding around aimlessly trying to decide where to move the tag to. I was heading down HWY 66 near Lyons when I spotted a 20 foot tall cowboy. I had to make this the new tag.
Well I found this thing odd so I hit google to find answers. I learned that he is known as a Muffler man. They can be found in different forms (Cowboys, Indians, Clowns, etc.) across the country.
I found a website Clicky dedicated to tracking these over-sized statues.
So now the tag challenge. Check the list and find a muffler man in your area. Take a pic of your bike in front of the muffler man and post it here. If you know of a muffler man that is not on the above website add it too. Let's see if we can get a photo of a ST in front of every known Muffler Man in the country.
I will start us out with 12765 N. 63rd Street Lyons/Longmont, Colorado
Since this was put in the tag section it automatically places the tag rules at the top, so let's clarify the rule modifications for this challenge.
TAG Rules
1. You ride to the current tag photo. No need unless you really want to ride
2. You photograph your bike at that location showing both your bike and the object in the photo. Don't need this one either
3. You then take a photo of your bike in front of another landmark, geographic location, etc. (Must be a Muffler man)
4. Post both photo's following the rules. Just post your muffler man bike photo along with location
5. Another rider then must tag your photo. Not needed but you can if you wish
6. If your tag location was previously tagged, it will not count, might be a good idea to get 2 pics so you have an alternate. Not needed
In other words Find a MM and post it. Heck I will even take photos taken in the past as long as your ST is in it (thanks Solo).
