Did your Guzzi break down (again) so you couldn't go get it?

[Ghost_Bullet]

Damn no, the griso is sitting lonesome in the garage, and I know just where that tag is, and hell well, will see what I can do....not sure about today, but if I can I will.

ha

[Ghost_Bullet]

So the tag was out Woodend Beach Road where the old cafe used to be. The next tag is a place closer to town. Hint in due course if required.

Nice day to get out, shame I did not twist the throttle for longer. Or even get to Methven for some racing.

Easy enough, the garages opposite Kaiapoi golf club.

What's with the digger in the mudhole, did it get buggered in the earthquake(s)?

[Spuds1234]

I believe the digger is fixing a small lake/large pond but Im not sure.

Just for clarity, the digger isnt the tag, the lake is. The digger may not always be there.

You guys shouldnt need any clues for this one. There are plenty in the photo.

[Spuds1234]

ummmm... I do, I see a building, cabbage tree. shellow rooted tree and a seat :blink: the modle boat lake in the park maybe

How many parks are in and about the place, with a small lake in that possibly suffered earthquake damage and needed to be drained and dug out?

Also Im lazy and was on my pushbike so theres no way its very far from the last tag.

[far queue]

I believe the digger is fixing a small lake/large pond but Im not sure.That lake is a man made one, built in the late 1800's, and had a clay base to keep the water in it. The Sept quake broke the base and rooted the banks, and the water drained out of it, I would guess the Feb quake did more damage. Now it's being dug out to be fixed. I would have thought there were higher priorities right now, but there you go.

Hopefully I've given you a bit of history without giving away any clues - that's not my job this time.

[Spuds1234]

To be fair, there is one digger on the job and not much else. I dont think its a high priority. Its not like the Christchurch Model Yacht Club cant go somewhere else once a week.

Much worse, they had already taken some of the over hanging rock rock down then February hit and it loosed up so much its not funny, there is a massive section threatening par t of the coal facilities that is over the road, but that's apparently not the worst of it, if you recall after September a section went to one lane, that was because the outside of the roads base became unstable, and this has occurred in a few more places. The retaining structures have failed as the rock they are bedded into has collapsed.

One problem apparently is a lot of the rock on the overhang is on DOC land, so before they get to bring it down it had to go through their channels, that takes time, and heaven forbid they have to do a study on the impact to some native moss or such.

Ok so heres a clue to the area its a bit cryptic.

I would use my bare feet to make me happy, but I would have to wait for the fruit of my labour, it wouldn't be instant gratification.

The items behind the bike have something to do with TALLOW and there is a time capsule buried in 1995 to be opened in 2095.

Hope that helps. oh yes and north of CHCH, easy roads, but an enjoyable trip with pub and cafe not too far away.

The items behind the bike have something to do with TALLOW and there is a time capsule buried in 1995 to be opened in 2095.

Hope that helps. oh yes and north of CHCH, easy roads, but an enjoyable trip with pub and cafe not too far away.

cryptic is good, but all I get out of it is 'candles' boogered if I know

I'm guessing a winery near waipara judging by the boulder from the gorge and the other clues, have no idea what the tallow has to do with anything, so until I get a couple of hours to go hopping around car parks I'm pretty much buggered too.

They are vats for mutton fat etc.

It had a loose fitting oil feeder pipe on the right side under the oil pump( fits into cover saying thunderstorm 1203) which poped out after about 3000k's. They put it back in saying don't know how it happened and ordered a replacement which was supposed to be fitted last thursday. Anyway when they tried to fit the replacement the inner thread came off and they couldn't tap it with the helicoil so they ordered a new cover( including new oil pump that is in their) from Aus.

Should be here today hopefully! and will have bike for weekend as want to go for a ride if the weather cheers up.

Having said that I just realised I can't do damn it as I'm running Basic Handling Skills tests all day saturday and have a family do on sunday celebrating 5 years in NZ! Might get out for a quick half hour run to Ashley Gorge or something though - hopefully.

[dangerous]

Went looked for it , thought was in sumner - a parked car may have been blocking it, maybe taylors with your latest clue :D

looks like the sumner wall, look again... some one please save the tag and get it the hell out of shitsville chch.

looks like the sumner wall, look again... some one please save the tag and get it the hell out of shitsville chch.

lol Wrong... I thought it was the sumner wall aswell (even went there twice looking for it).... and new tag out of chch

In the end I rode past the pier and noticed the same wall in the background and the same retaining wall in the foreground (the retaining wall in sumner is brick, this one is concrete) so I just rode down marine parade looking for it, found it in the carpark across from Bowhill Rd

Good tag, I've lived in New Brighton most of my life and I still had no idea - hence the trips to sumner

I don't think this new tag is going to be hard at all, but atleast it is easy to get to and a not bad, quick ride out.

Loburn – St Martin’s Anglican – 80 Hodgson Road
The little St Martin’s Anglican church was built in 1891 on land that had been
purchased in 1878. Prior to that, the local Anglicans most likely attended
services in Rangiora or were invited to the Mount Thomas homestead. The
one-room weatherboard structure is an extremely modest low-church building.
Renovations were made during 1988-89.

No rhyme there brp, IIRC dangerous placed a tag a while back at another Cobb & Co on the old west coast road in Courtney, that was an actual pub. Cobb & Co were also in Aussie and had many routes in NZ.

The reason the old place managed to be so beaten up is it is only 500m from what you might call ground zero ;)

[brp]

Remem Courtney pub when it had no paint on it - ready for the wrecking ball, use to be good spot for digging up those pricey blue bottles - someone done a nice job restoring it. Cheers Transalper for all your time linking up the tags to Google maps, true feat.

Well Chief pretty big clue you have given - cheers

Well Chief with motorbike glove, throttle grip in pocket, border collie partner in crime headed for ground zero on foot, buggered if i could find it, even stopped showed the photo on my phone to a hobbo reeking of piss, landlord that lived in area for years - hostel owner chatting to him.

Good one uncle... and whats with the new bike?

500m from the start line of the sept 10 quake. The epi center (GZ a 300mm wide crack estermated at 3km deep) some show it 10km further north, but oddly there is no sign of it there.
Heres a photo (which was going to be the next clue) of the store last used as a nursary after sept 10.

Decided it was time to get off the tar sealed roads.....

Everything I found pointed to just by charing cross...

Anyway, onwards and north-eastwards, not the best photo as it was getting dark but we'll see how we go...

Pretty much a place for the boys, complete with special rooms where they can indulge their fantasies. You'd be lucky to find any girls there though, they're more likely to be across the road....

Pretty easy one, pity I have run out of bikes

[dangerous]

as usual... no farking idea, and yeah the epicenter was centered charing way... however as COH says there is no signs of it the land mark starts on the edge of the selwen river in greendale and shoots through a substation across telegraph rd, rolly chch etc. heres a pic of it crossing telie rd

[brp]

There is some really cool stuff happening in empty spaces around town


I think D's idea of ground zero is the name of the fault that started it all, although it's a bit more than 500m from the epicentre of the Sept 4 quake to the old Greendale store.

Cheers, good find.

So the coach hobbled along from courtney to greendale to sheffield to the coast ? No wonder it took them so long :D

Yeah lots of new parks springing up too


Kool pic of telegraph road - so no longer the longest straight in NZ ? (Well use to be the rumour)

[Crim]

This will be tough unless you know it or if you look back on previous tags - DOH! , she is hidden down some back street

[neels]

This will be tough unless you know it, she is hidden down some back street

Or you remember from the last time it was tagged...... :shifty:

[cromagnon]

It is on one of the tagorama maps...

It was Bottle lake, beside the carpark

[Geordie_Biker6]

yup. just next to the info centre. you see that course as soon as you pull into the carpark.

Old tag was fairly self-explanatory, 597 Mcleans Island rd.

This new one might be a little too obscure for most, but hopefully someone will recognize it, heres a little clue...
If you're looking to engage the barrel-maker in one of the worlds oldest boardgames, you should look for him near his small river.

[Geordie_Biker6]

nice. i know the area you mean but cant for the hell of me figure out exatly where it is lol

[Buyasta]

nice. i know the area you mean but cant for the hell of me figure out exatly where it is lol

Nice, I wasn't sure if I made it too cryptic or not... To help out a little more, I'll say that while part of the clue was the area, another part was a clue as to the name of the road it's on.
Also, to be fair, it's not so much at as near the area hinted at, like within a 5km radius

Also just in case people are looking for churches, it is actually a private house. About 15 years ago I got shown around the place by the guy who designed and built it, he was a somewhat eccentric dutch guy who wanted to combine various architectural features, hence the steeple.

Well the only board games I remember playing when I was young were Monopoly, Cluedo and Battleship.

Guess I'm out of this one.

Not too cryptic, I've got it sorted, was wondering how you ended way out there.

Might be out that way for a ride on Monday, if nobody beats me to it I'll explain the clues then ;)

Ah, excellent, glad I didn't make it too difficult.

As far as ending up out there, my dad used to live a few houses up the road from the tag, so it sprung to mind as a nice distinctive location, and my mum still lives thereabouts, so I grabbed both tags on the way out to her place, it turned out to be a great day for a ride. :D

[dangerous]

About 15 years ago I got shown around the place by the guy who designed and built it, he was a somewhat eccentric dutch guy who wanted to combine various architectural features, hence the steeple.That dont look designed... more hatched, figgered they were "alterations" but what you are saying is 'built from new'
and the clues mean nout to me.

[Buyasta]

Yeah, like I said, the guy was a bit odd, he figured he'd take his favourite features from every different style of architecture and chuck them all together.
If memory serves the place was only built about 18-20 years ago, and it definitely looked like that from day one.

Since Neels is the only one having any luck figuring it out, I'll give a little more info to give him some competition... It's within a few km of Oxford, roughly halfway between Oxford and the area hinted at in my first clue. As I'd said, the name of the road is hinted at in my clue, specifically the section about one of the worlds oldest board games.

You forgot the bit about the spelling not being quite right either....
