An independent bike shop for sure. Here is a helpful link to start your journey. Just enter you city and state, or zip code on the left to find Schwinn dealers near you.

http://www.schwinnbikes.com/where-to-buy

Maybe the bike shops that you know about are Schwinn dealers.

So does it still have to be a Schwinn Dealer? Thats kind of what I'm guessing since you posted a link.

Interesting. The closest one from me is quite a drive, and it's too far with gas around $3.80 a gallon and rising. I'll be skipping this one.

Family fun center meaning? If you google them mini golf and other things of such come up. Does it have to say family fun center or will a boardwalk count?

Thanks. If i had washed the car today like i had planned on doing and grabbed the tripod then the original 4288x2848 resolution pics would have looked better. But they do look good at the 1024x680 resolution. I was going to wash, clay bar, polish and wax but i got lazy because it was a little chilly today.

Alright: Time to calculate points for the winner! But before that, I must say Dalastdon, that is absolutely some fantastic photography and what I would hope everyone tries to do in completing challenges. A+

HOLY COW!! We have a 3 way tie (2brosgixxer + Dalastdon + Maximaboy12)!!!! Well, I suppose the only fair way to resolve this is to continue the game until one of the three members gets one more point, breaking the tie!

I'll be skipping this challenge. You can't pull into a dealership lot here without getting surrounded by salesmen even before you get out of your car when you park.

That's why I hate going to my local Nissan dealership for anything. There's no where to park except for up front, and the parts department is on the side of the building. Every time I go there, I get stopped by salesman trying to get to the door. When I tell them i'm going to the parts department, they look at my car and say,

Sales douche... "Is that your car?"
Me... "Yes it is"
Sales douche... "What year is that Maxima?"
Me... "2000"
Sales douche... "Why don't I show you a new one so you don't have to keep fixing that old thing?"
Me... "When Nissan decides to offer Maxima's again with a manual transmission we'll talk"

And then they do this when they realize that Maxima's once actually had manual transmissions...

The challenge says "your Maxima in a car wash" so it doesn't say anything about it getting washed. Just pull it in there and snap a pic.

What I have been doing is CAPS LOCKING the words NEXT CHALLENGE so that it sticks out a little when I post on mobile. However, Its not that hard to look below your pic and see the words either, as you said.

Look up at the first post. It's called rules. So use your eyes and read the words. It's been mentioned that all caps when typing your challenge on the mobile app is very doable.

Of course, I'd like to know how people are posting images via mobile apps.

I don't know how others are doing it, but I have the photobucket app for android phones which makes it very simple to upload the pics to my phone then get the direct link. Then I get on the .org website on my phone, but i don't use the "mobile" view so when I get on my phone, it looks just like the internet does. Click on the attach image icon, like using my computer, paste the link and BAM done. Does this make sense Chris??

Since i'm on the subject, if you have an Android phone, GET THE PHOTOBUCKET APP!!! It makes it so simple to upload your pics and attach them here.
