    Post your #PublicArtFinder pic here! But please do so responsibly by using the “small” option on your Tapatalk menu!!

    Rules (which are more like general guidelines [emoji849]):

    1. Ride your bike a least a mile to any art form (loosely defined) that is freely accessible to the public

    2. Take a picture of said art with a bicycle somewhere in the frame, and upload to this thread, Strava and/or the FS Facebook page (but please include the link here so that it can be found).

    3. Hashtag your ride #publicartfinder (not CaSe SeNsItIvE) on Strava if you want to appear on the FS2021 PP leaderboard https://freezingsaddles.org/pointless/hashtag/publicartfinder

    4. Public Art rides/pics must be posted within 72 hours, so as to allow all a fair chance to play, and avoid sandbagging at the end of FS2020 to game the PP competition.

    Entries will be judged by some faceless cabal on totally subjective criteria that may include use of creative objects (like a bike), composition, light, artistic flair, witty captions, great stories, # of quality submissions, and/or # likes, kudos or dislikes. Extra points if you disclose the exact location of the art form so that others may enjoy it.

    Now go find your Public Art form!

    All aboard the chameleon train in Silver Spring! It is down the street from the metro parking garage, by Bonifant and Georgia. I thought it was a gecko but reading more about the mural, it is a chameleon.

    A mural at Fairfax Corner. Reminds me of when my daughter was horse-obsessed. I’m so glad she outgrew that before we did something like buy a pony!

    I believe this is called an infinity cross, two looping infinity symbols. Found outside the Salvation Army in Del Ray.

    Ah [mention]bikedavid [/mention], you beat me to the post! It’s really huge (and really cool). Here’s a pic collage from my ride a week ago:741b527e6fdf077c0c2d09b991a4a995.jpg

    Oops sorry. Great collage–you were able to fit the whole mural to show how huge it is!

    The Trader Joe on Wisconsin near the Naval Observatory has a mural in the style of their flyers. In addition to produce, wonder if they carry this bike. [emoji57]
