    Hey Ken. I have a shot very similar to that in my garage. Only the shot I have is the Exit 40 sign coming from the other direction. One day I was coming home from work on my Harley and I tucked up behind a semi cause the wind was unreal. Being so close to the semi, I didn't see the exit till it was too late, but I tried to make it anyway. Tried is the key word. I ended up shooting right between the sign posts and into the ditch at about 60mph. The posts are only about 3' apart. There was a black streek from my hand grip on the inside of the right post. It was a heck of a ride, but I managed to keep it on 2 wheels. So my friends took a picture of the sign and blew it up and gave ti to me for Christmas that year.
