Yup that's it.
I rode over the bridge last summer.
Worth a visit if you are in the area. St. Jacob's is nearby with lots of places to eat.

Umm, the pictures on the web are close to identical to the one posted except no Tenere.

No it is not....I took pictures of the "Kissing Bridge" in West Montrose just north of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and compared my pictures with the picture posted here, different bridge.

Well gee...... I rode my Tenere from Listowel to the village of West Montrose, found the only covered bridge in town, rode across it and parked for the photo. I don't know what bridge you are speaking of? No worries, it's a game and I enjoyed the ride as I'm sure you did. ;)
Now, back away from the computer and find a wingless airplane!

Ah, I'm in Stratford. On this weekend past, I rode over to Brooklin just north of Whitby Oshawa. I took a back route which turned out to be very pleasant, except for Newmarket which is very busy.
Stratford Linwood Arthur Orangeville Newmarket Gormley Goodwood then south and east to Brooklin.
Now I'll try and post a picture of the Kissing Bridge that I took last summer
Compare this to the bridge in the other post, where he mentions Alabama or Georgia. Let me know.
Ride safely and we'll see you on the road.

Next tag, a covered bridge.View attachment 54692
Ok, now I think I have it figured out.
If you're Tenere is yellow GV550 parked near a bridge, then yes it appears to be the Bridge in West Montrose, north of Waterloo.
"Checkswrecks" posted a picture of a similar Bridge somewhere in Alabama or Georgia.
Hmmmm, mystery solved

Alabama or Georgia? I guess there are only so many ways to design a bridge. The bridge I posted is the Utica bridge in Thurmont, Maryland.
7720 Utica Rd, Thurmont, MD 21788

NOT THE TAG
The new tag is an airplane without wings (or other big portions) or where not normally expecting to find an airplane, like in this example:

I know of a good match but I’ve been recovering from back surgery since 3/27 and each time to go back for a checkup my Doc says NO.

We're going to be circling for a while on this tag! :p
That airplane looks like a Piper Tomahawk.
I did my commercial license training on this type of airplane.
Not a great performer, and you don't want to stall it anywhere close to mother earth, cause it's unforgiving.

Bummer, was hoping some one would have grabbed this tag by now. That would have made me feel a little less guilty about riding past a wingless PA-28 sitting in a field near the side of the road down in NC this weekend. By the second day of passing it I started to think I really should stop.

If only I had stayed one more day.

Is that a Day Long Seat? DO you like it?
Yes, it's a RDL with the heavyweight option in small squares and Sunfast canvas fabric. This is my second RDL, the first being on my former FJR, also small squares, but vinyl for that one. Yes, I do like it and it has ~140k miles on it and is still good. I put about that on the FJR one as well w/o issues. All in all, I prefer the vinyl to the sunfast fabric. I had hoped the sunfast would be a little grabby, but it's not and it stains. It was light gray when new.

PM if you have specific questions about the RDL.

LOL - Woulda shoulda never counts.
:p

Yes, the example on the roof is a dreaded Traumahawk and this is probably the safest use for one. Most people are probably over-thinking where to find a new tag, as most airports and even airplane museums have a cockroach corner somewhere with wrecks and wingless wonders. Heck, at this point even a decoration outside of one of the 94th Aero Squadron restaurants.

Does this count? Spotted in Switzerland :)View attachment 55605
Hmmmm. A single Engine military jet, older but I cannot name it, although it looks like I was correct in my reply about the "Traumahawk" ha ha as someone else called it. It is a Piper Tomahawk, a two seater trainer airplane, and a not so good one as there were several stall/spin accidents because to stall this airplane means it will easily enter into a spin which can take a few thousand feet of altitude to recover.

Absolutely! Even though your bike is supposed to be in the photo, I'd take your word for it to move things along.
What's next?

For the tag game your bike must be in the picture and no file photos please. We are having some side action fun with planes that are not tag photos. :cool:

I believe that tail section and engine exhaust nacelle are from a British made Hawker Hunter that was in service with the Swiss Air Force from the ‘60s to the ‘90s.
