Thanks Moodymoody for my so unexpected victory as the only participant ! I guess that holidays are in the air ! ... Will there be at least 1 participant for my object ? Let �s see. If not I think it will be better to start it again in September ???
Here is a city object whose true name is unknown. what do you think it is ? |

Well, with both Canada Day and American Independence day last week, I guess you �re right. I know I can �t win (except by default), but I �ll make sure you have at least as many participants as I had.
My name is cyclopecten.
Cyclo-: cycle, of course
Pecten: Latin for comb
It �s a comb for cycles! |

It �s a pity this is not a caption post - I �ve lots of ideas: "A brush with cycling" (like in a brush with danger - an occasion when you nearly experience something unpleasant) "Comb, cycle with me" "Art Nouveau aka friendly neighbours" |

In my purse, I have a 19-tooth wooden comb. If the comb is the shape that has been chosen for the parking corrals for bicycles in this city, we can assume that there are other parking lots for bikes in the shape of a comb, too. As the number of the teeth of a comb can vary, it is a good idea to specify it. In this case there are nine teeth. My proposal of a caption is the following: The 9-tooth comb bike corral It was fun thinking about an appropriate caption. Best, CyrillicAlphabet |
