    It’s mid week, so it’s time for our next Freezing Saddles Side Bet! For this challenge ” Find the Founding Fathers”, we will not be competing in teams, nor will there be any benefit to being in one state over another. FSSB #3 will be in the format of a photo meme, so get those cameras ready. To complete the tasks of FSSB #3, you will have to ride your bike to a place, any place that mentions, alludes to, honors, is named for, or could be perceived to represent one of President of the United States. Take a picture of your bike with that location and post it on the forum. The trick (there is always a trick) is that you have to post a photo of the presidential items in order from Washington to Obama. For example I have posted a photo of my bike at the “Washington Marina”. Once you post your photo write the name of the president in the text section. like this:

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]4478[/ATTACH]
    WASHINGTON

    Feel free to be as obvious or as obscure as you like. I could have posted a photo of the Washington Monument, or even the Masonic Temple. Be creative. To be able to go on to the next president, at least 3 forum people have to “like” the post. Other rules, Washington was easy (the entire town is named for him) so I took it to start the process, once we get 3 likes we can move on to “John Adams” If you have a better photo and the current one doesn’t have 3 likes, then by all means make the steal. The White house or other POTUS site that is not specific to any one president will not work. There only needs to be one photo for each president, you don’t have to post your own list of presidents, just the next one in order. Multiple presidents in one photo are okay, but you only get credit for the next one. You have to have at least 1 bike in the picture. The picture has to be taken starting today. Also, the name in question doesn’t actually have to be “written” in the photo like “Washington” in Washington Marina was. Nicknames are also acceptable. Have fun and remember it’s all for fun. We are already winners!

    So I’m pretty sure I posted before the dislike on the blue dress.

    I would have only liked the blue dress if it had been worn on the bike :-)

    I’m not sure which came first–the last like or my dislike. (They were more or less simultaneous.) But I’ve removed my dislike to let the competition go forward.

    Super ELITE, but you must not be cool enough to have access to the button. Sorry. :p

    Too late, but I think you would have to go to http://www.yelp.com/biz/president-cigars-washington-2?nb=1

    I think you may have to give us a hint on what this is?

    My guess is fence somewhere on the WH perimeter, fitting for the current president and also fitting for its longest resident, FDR.
