• Start with a City beginning with A
    • This is BY STATE
    • Similar to the Tag contest, there will be one thread per state
    • Post a picture of your bike AND some sign, building etc which clearly shows the city/state you're in
    • The next person posts from a city with the name beginning with B, then C, D, etc
    • You can't posts back-to-back pics, you have to wait for a person to post the next city
    • Once Z is reached, the game starts over with A
    • If your state doesn't have a city beginning with the next letter in sequence, it's okay to skip that letter
    • If the location sits for more than one month, the person that posted that is open to move it to the next letter.

    The World Wide game is a bit different as it is by whatever is considered a geographic type of regional category, state/province/village etc. and all those will be in the single World Wide A-Z topic.

My intent wasn't to go get the letter T but to work towards the break-in of my new bike. Once I pulled up to the stop sign and saw the post office I thought I'd grab a pic for the game............or I think that is how it played out, I forget.
Joe, are you sure you had your helmet on?? Or did it just rattle your head inside it?? Just messin with you Joe!!

Re: TX: A to Z (Round 6)

OK, so I opened my shed and there was Big Bird with a long look. I said, OK, let's go. Si it was US 377 over to Stephenville for the S. It was so nice that an about face and home wasn't going to get it. So headed north on US 281 to Morgan Mii, a right on FM 1889 to Lipan and another right on FM 4 back home to Granbury.

So who's up next for the T?

Paul, that's exactly what I'm hoping for. I don't need a repeat of the past!
No doubt. I remembered that's why you got that color.

Andy, you went a long way for that one :D

I was thinking about going for the 'T' this afternoon after the sun comes out, but will have to change my plans now. My ride might not have been much different than yours, mileage-wise.

Picked it up on the way back from Huntsville. First time riding the KBiK in the rain.

Good luck on finding anything there that says University Park on it. If you can get a cop car to hold still that is one, then there is the fire department. Maybe I'm blind, but I had a tough time finding anything there with the name on it. There is a church right off Preston I think, but to park there in front of the sign is illegal. I tried it at night once, but the pic didn't come out.

Re: TX: A to Z (Round 6)

Duhhh! If I had planned my route from Houston to Alpine properly I could have picked off Uvalde and then the sth TX tag in Camp Wood. Now I am in Colorado to leave it y'all

Looks like the public library has a good sign..

Re: TX: A to Z (Round 6)

If someone gets the "U" sometime in the next couple of weeks, I may be able to jump on the V or W after I get back from FL next month. Go For It!
