Anyone up for Riding/Photo game?

It doesn't have to be a Hooters sheesh, just your favorite coffee shop or restaurant. I was going to specify "your favorite pub or brewery" since coffee shops and breweries are two things we have no shortage of here in the Pacific Northwest, but since we have some under 21 y.o. riders figured I'd just make it general.

Thank goodness. Now, if it isn't necessary for my bike to also be in the pics, then these could be winners if the Brits get to vote.
I couldn't arrange for the xs400 to be in the pics, however, I couldn't resist sharing one of my all time favourites which was in front of the best coffee shop in the watershed.
I hope you all won't consider this to be a

Looks like a TR3

Favourite coffee shop again but went there in a car so no winning photo of the xs400.
This bike was in front of it though - quite a beauty.
Thought y'all might enjoy:

After some intense riding through traffic jams. Stopped to cool bike down...
Hope this pic qualifies

Hope this pic qualifies

Why didn't I think of that? Take the picture of the xs400 sitting in front of the coffee shop from inside the shop.
Could have shot over that stupid TR-3.
I vote for your shot ArtursF - unless an xs400 in front of a HOOTERS turns up..

that's a tea cup not a coffee cup

I'd say ArtursF got it, if we can get the name and local!
What's the next challenge?

 

[RevrdMark]

ArturesF has it! Give us the name of your favorite spot.

What's the next challenge ?

 

[ArtursF]

Name of the place is "Cafe Gauja". It's located on Terbatas street (quiet side of city center). Common gathering place for art folks and hipsters as it is famous for its soviet-style installation, dishes, art etc.
For Drewpy: when that place opened they served coffee in these

Next challenge:XS near train (the older the better)
(hope this one is not too easy)

What I meant was a railroad train.

You can post pictures of all kind of trains. Just keep it SFW

No problem. You will get used to Drewpy.
He is a lateral thinker and not bound by the confines of traditional linear problem-solving, interpretation or translation.
SFW huh?

Peckett and Sons was a locomotive manufacturer at the Atlas Works in St. George, Bristol, England. This 0-4-0 class is the only fireless locomotive to ever be produced at Atlas Works. Worked entire life at CWS soapworks, Irlam, Salford.

I was going to visit the Manchester Museum Science and Industry where they have a working Stephenson's Planet class locomotive which ran the first ever passenger railway from Manchester to Liverpool.
Might still do Although I'm not sure I could get the bike in there can't get older than that as it was the first commercial one in the world!

i know that place well have you asked them if they can let you take a photo with your old bike next to the locomotive ?
if they tell you no it's no loss but if they say yes will be an awsome shot
