What a beautiful area. Unfortunately, I don't have too many photographs of the roads around San Louis Obispo and Morro Bay. It's a great place to ride.

not far away; here's what Santa Margarita looked like in 1994:


and, here's my old Eldo on the beach near Morro Bay way back in 1984:

What a great game!

FWIW, I can't see jamileh's pix, but can Daniel's. That'll be my excuse for not guessing.

But I do like the idea. Ought to be a sticky.

So, anyone think they know where these are taken?

All in southeast/midatlantic US.

Doubt if anyone can even correctly guess the state in the first; the second is too easy, tho a bad day to have been there; the third, up for grabs.

Let's see who can come closest.

Great idea, jamileh.

Man, Bill. Do clouds and rain have a regional look? I'm goinng with Tennessee for the first (near Mt. Pisgah). But, that's just a guess.

You know, Daniel, you are right about the "regional look." 'Course, with all your NZ and northern Italy time, you are likely an expert in the "clouds and rain" business all over the world.

Actually, too, #'s 1 & 3 were a bit clueless (as was I), and I'll look for more with some built-in help other than obviously Planet Earth.

As for # 1 and your guess ... no, not Tennessee ... but not bad.

Actually, at an overlook on the eastbound ascent of Fort Mountain, on Georgia SR 52/2 near Chatsworth, en route to Ellijay, and just below Fort Mountain State Park. View is generally southeast.

Bill, #2 looks just like TWO in Suches, GA.

not trying to cheat, but hovering the mouse over that last one gives: Virginia State Route 42...


Let me offer up a road that I'd bet plenty of us have been on:

Bingo; well done.

That shot was taken at end of the 2009 Georgia Guzzi Campout, run by Wayne Orwig, and based out of T.W.O. at Suches. The shot was of Pat Cowan screwing up his courage to get on the road back to Tennessee.

Here are more pix of that sodden event if you care: http://preview.tinyurl.com/mmmpgk

That's not cheating, but clever. That's what I get for not checking on what "properties" and other hidden info revealed! That shot was taken northbound on that gorgeous road, SR 42, between Bland and New Castle.

As for your road, darn it, not a clue. Don't think I've been there. If I have, shame on me for not remembering!

Ha!!!

Two can play that game, Daniel!

Beartooth Pass. Looking towards the Absaroka Range (Yellowstone).

Never been there, but I've been here: http://www.dankalal.net/

Do we need some sort of Geneva Convention for this game so that we don't "cheat" as we both did?

well done!
But, I think more than that; we need players...
...and pretty soon our forum owner is going to yank this thread into its "proper" place (and then we'll never find it again)
