what a fun activity and also to engage and meet other bikers, I dont have a big bike or bicycle to join I’ll share this to spread your contest!
Thanks Jean, you don’t have to have a motorcycle or bicycle to join in the fun! You can be in the pictures!!
What a great post with great ideas! I actually don’t know what a scavenger hunt is. Thanks for teaching me that adults can also have some fun adventures!
Hi Nadia! Yes adults can and do have fun too!! Photo Scavenger Hunt is a great because everyone can play along!
Wow nice motorcycle. I love the scavenger hunt challenge something really exciting to look forward to. I think my summer of 2021 wasn’t what I was expecting since my ex husband made my life a living hell by not letting me see my son the entire summer long story anyways I went on boat rides this summer and basically chilled I think I could have done more but didn’t and that’s okay. I’m awaiting fall weather my favorite time of the year? god bless!
Hi Tara, Thanks for taking the time to check out our blog and the scavenger hunt! Sorry you haven’t had the greatest of times lately, I hope things change for you! You can still enter the scavenger hunt and have some fun! I am looking forward to the fall weather as well!!
Okay, now this is the way to do an adult scavenger hunt! So cool! And definitely another cool way to encourage adventure and exploring.
Thanks Brava!! We are excited about the scavenger hunt and hope you join in the fun!!
I LOVE this idea! While I am not a bike rider, I could totally play this game with different guidelines.. thanks for the inspiration.
Hi Jennifer! I hope you join in the fun of the scavenger hunt, you definitely don’t need to be a bike rider to play along!!
