Awkward by maggiemae

Awkward

This is not what you would expect to see in a carpeted room but it was a motorcycle show in our local Men's Club. He was moving it outside using his feet.
Three Good Things:
1. Not spending too much time in this show.
2. Great lunch in the club - prices are so reasonable.
3. Facetime with son in Japan who are preparing for yet another typhoon!
My reaction before reading your intro - What is he doing on the carpet ! Hope he negotiated the corner well !!

Another typhoon, that's bad news! Hope our families keep safe! Men & bikes should not be inside on the carpets! Working men's clubs usual are great value in food & drink!

Motor bikes are not my cup of tea, I'm afraid.
Bad news about another typhoon in Japan.

Odd place to ride!!

Ha ha, turn left!

@happypat These motorbikes were cleaned to within an inch of themselves for the Show! But this guy had to use one foot at a time to move forward. He certainly wouldn't be allowed to start engines!

Great image. Certainly looks a well kept bike.

Such and interesting photo! Very incongruous!

You wouldn't want to start up that one inside, it'd be deafening. Love this shot, looks so strange to see a bike inside.

Unique capture :)…#2 Sound right up my alley :).

@golftragic These guys - owners are mostly older and so proud of their motorbikes!

@seattlite The only bad comment I could make with the food is that they serve far too much on the plate!
September 30th, 2018  
@maggiemae Oh yes, I can well imagine that. My BIL is one of those sorts of guys. Mens' Sheds/spaces are such a great idea.
September 30th, 2018  
Brilliant! :-)

@bankmann Well, thank you Mr B! There were about 40 bikes behind me, but this shot had more character!

A great shot showing how awkward it is indoors. By now you should be used to the typhoons in Japan, it always sounds worse than it is. Of course depending whether you live on the coast or not ;-)

@ludwigsdiana I think the main problem is the power goes out in thousands of homes! Don't have that happen where we live now!

Well seen

@sarahlth It was virtually a turnaround and a quick snap, Sarah! No second chances!
September 30th, 2018  
Ha ha, unusual sight!

My husband is in Tokyo this week and spoke to me of rather loud creaking from the high floor of his hotel room earlier on this evening. I hope everyone is OK.

@helenhall I hope he wasn't on the 22nd floor! Their buildings are built to sway - the newer ones that is.!

Fun shot- actually I think it would be funny to see motorcycles riding through a hotel hallway- but only in the movies where they'd alter the sound! haha

I think I would have done a double take seeing this. Glad you got to talk with your son scary times there.

Wow! Well caught.
