Tag o rama!

[ckai]

I am currently without a bike. I am def not walking. Was tempting to drive out and tag it just for laughs!

You may have got told off for that :shit: haha I've often thought about doing that for shits and giggles as well.

You waiting for the Boxing Day sales to get a new ride? ;)

Agreed, you know what rocks... Harley riders what wave, that's my kinda good day.

[St_Gabriel]

Geezus folks, this place is turning into a waving thread so I thought I better rectify it

Original was the entrance to the Tauhei quarry on Tauhei Quarry Rd (took Einstein to figure that one)

New one, got two pics to help , continue North (North East???) from the quarry. Download for a better clue


(And yes even got the odd wave from Harleys on the ride round the loop)

no waving when you pass this tag :rofl:

[slofox]

Well done St Gab. Thought this had stalled forever...

[slofox]

Here ya go...


OLD TAG: Ngati Maru building in Thames.
NEW TAG: Not exactly demanding...About ten minutes norf of old tag. Google is your friend.

I woulda gone further up but time began to press, so...

[bi-winning]

Well even with the stupid traffic out and about today, it still turned out to be a good trip around the loop.

Old Tag - Ngarimu Bay, north of Thames. Had to stick the Loser plate on for a laugh

New Tag - Hopefully not too dificult to find, the camera is pointing north, just ask if more clues are needed

Happy tagging

[Dodgy1]

Okay I'll be first....give us a clue mate....well done on the tag as well:woohoo:

[rwh]

New Tag - Hopefully not too dificult to find, the camera is pointing north, just ask if more clues are needed

North-East, perhaps?

Pretty sure I've located it, anyway.

Not that my health, or back tyre, or remaining holiday, or fuel budget is up to the trip :-(

[St_Gabriel]

Nevermind, slofox will post the new tag in the next 5 minutes or so anyhow.....

[bi-winning]

Okay I'll be first....give us a clue mate....well done on the tag as well:woohoo:

Well those islands in the background are the merc's(mercury islands) and the peninsula to the right is Black Jack reserve.... Im sure along with a bit of google mapping you'l have no trouble finding it

[slofox]

Nevermind, slofox will post the new tag in the next 5 minutes or so anyhow.....

Nah - rode SH22 today - as far as Pukekawa anyway. Along with sundry rabbits and marauding sheep...

[slofox]

Hmmmm I know that area. Is that in the layby before you hop over the hill to Opito?

[wysper]

Okay I'll be first....give us a clue mate....well done on the tag as well:woohoo:

I think it is near Thames --

whoops - missed a lot of posts some how LOL
No idea where the new one is though.

[Dodgy1]

I've got it ....now all I have to do is find the time to go get it...:yes:

[bi-winning]

Slowfox - I guess in some ways it could be on the way to opito... as far as is it a layby? its at a boat ramp...

[bi-winning]

Well I just got my 6R today, im sure that will put way more tags in my range to collect, now that I can do 100 K's :innocent:

Where did you do your test?


Yay :banana: Well done Daniel.Nice bikes them R6's too much for this ole geezer. I really wanna get out and get that tag but shit just keeps on happening :doh:

No :Police: I only ride :scooter: my Ninja ZX-6R as I now have my 6R on my licence :bleh:

As soon as I get my bike back from Boyds I'll be keen to do the loop and look for that tag :bleh:
Anybody free this Saturday and want to help me find it? :o

[Dodgy1]

Remember that shit I metioned....back at work saturday otherwise I would be keen as.........

[bi-winning]

Where did you do your test?


I done the test in Huntly - id have to recomend it if someones looking for a real easy spot to do licences.. because its pretty much a desert town off the motorway in huntly and suprising has a lack of hazards.:weird:
Gutted the Kiwibiker forums have been playing up for me ( not updating since my last post until now??) otherwise i woulda been up to do the loop yeasterday. let me know when your headin out anywhere next, if ya dont mind a tag-along

As for me getting an R6 Dodgey... not yet, sadly still on the hyoBung for now

[sil3nt]

So i have no idea where this tag is.

[mikemike104]

So i have no idea where this tag is.

Neither..... Clues are needed... imo

[bi-winning]

Sweet, well its taken from a boat ramp on the coro loop for starters. If you look at google maps, its pretty much the northern most part of the SH25 loop.. picture of the boat ramp in the attatchment. From google maps you should also be able to notice the mercury islands in the back ground. Pretty sure you cant go wrong now

[sil3nt]

Ok thats a long way away. Might need a group effort for this! :bleh:

[slofox]

Just as well you posted that satellite view - I would have been well east of there had I gone after it.

Pretty sure I know where it is now. But I'm not about to go get it any time soon. If you organise a group ride to go get it I might try to tag (haha) along.

No shit? Firefighter Marie? Small world. She better be in quick, I had someone wanting to buy it with it being on trademe for 10 mins! A couple from Auckland are coming to look at it this weekend (still not sold though). Hopefully im not Bike-less for too long, wouldnt wanna miss another loop ride

Ah man, was hoping to have a new one up to break my new bike in.. Picked up a mint 2005 R6 today, red one that has been on trademe for awhile... Its impressive to say the least :gob: Even in the rain

[smoky]

Well Sunday a few of us around the Coro loop - went up the Thames coast side until we could go no further, then down and around Kopu to Whitianga, a wee incident there and we headed back down to Whangamata and back to Hamilton

It was a good ride, except for perhaps the two suicidal pukekos who almost took two of us out, then there was the mad wasp who hitched a ride between my neck and helmet strap - mind you it only stung for a little while, then I didn't notice it any more because of my sore ribs ...... from smacking into the back of a car. A daft female driver randomly decided to slam on her brakes in the middle of the road because she spotting a nice place to walk her doggie on the beach at Whitianga ........... :shit:

Oh well - the ride home was interesting, with no rear brake and bits and pieces taped up with duct tape
All a little embarrassing really

So if any one has parts for a Bandit 1200 1998 - let me know


Oh by the way - didn't get the tag while I was up there - sorry

[slofox]

then there was the mad wasp who hitched a ride between my neck and helmet strap - mind you it only stung for a little while,

" poofters

Stings don't hurt .........."

I read that somewhere just recently...:whistle:

[Murray]

Rumour has it Jim had a wee off this weekend too. TBC

[sil3nt]

So can we put this tag on hold for a little while :whistle:

Perhaps some round town tags until we get our act together.

Will think about whether to complete loop or come back same way on the day. Will depend on time etc. If I just reverse the route, there's nothing to stop you going all the way round. Distance is similar but the Thames coast isn't exactly fast...

Wotcha reckon?


EDIT: Anyone else wants to tag (haha) along just let's know.

[bi-winning]

Wotcha reckon?

I reckon it sounds good. I need to do some servicing to the bike tonight and tomorrow, so unless something happens an it doesnt go to plan it sould be a good ride, (weather hopefully good)

I left hammy at 8, :scooter: through the back roads just entered Ngaruawahia and something started to feel soggy :shit::shutup::facepalm::angry::crybaby::bye: Yup i got a Flat front tire.:violin:
:wings: Luckly i have a pincture repair kit in my saddle bag .... :blink: ... umm having never used a repair kit I decide its best if I read the instruction booklet first. As I had just finished reading all the instructions a couple of bloody good blokes off to a MX trail ride stop and talk me through fixing the tire.
:rockon: 3 min later my tire was back up to pressure! :done::wari: Easy
I then rode back home with my tail between my legs at 005kmph due to a dogturd stinking out of my front tire. I just couldn't get that :sick: sick feeling out of my head that the dogturd was only going to last a couple km before giving me a blowout mid corner. :sick: but I'm home safe now.
Hope you guys had a grate days tagging :yes:

Didn't take the bike to work as planned as i woke up 10 minutes before my shift started and it would take 10 minutes just to get the bike out between the cars :facepalm:

I have a major bitch about one aspect of this...

"Shared" cycleway/footpath...

Having spent many hours walking along the "share with care" sections of the footpaths along the river, I can tell you that the "care" bit means "I don't care" if you are a cyclist. If you are on foot, watch out for maniacs on bikes because they don't give a shit about your safety. A bit like motorists and bikes really...I meanta say, there has already been one death as a result of a cyclist hitting a pedestrian and yet we still have these bloody shared paths...

Have to agree with silentwar here, theoretically you are supposed to take the tag from the same place.
It would be like the tag of slofox (i think) of the temple from an odd perspective, if you had taken from the other side of the temple and just said, same temple, TAG.

just my 2c - course I am the guy that thinks tagging the same place is ok too!

Hate to tell ya this but if you can see the campus on google maps then your looking in the wrong place.....I have google maps open and it shows the old tavern still there....google maps well out of date:yes:

[Murray]

head out airport way!! Hey guys theres a MAG charity ride on 20th (yes I know its Paeroa races) if your looking for something to do that day. Its in the Calendar if you want to register. Also remember Ulysses teddy beer run on 27th of Feb

[ckai]

Invalid!!! You took your photo from a completely different place :bleh:

Have no idea where new tag is :blink:

Although if anyone is keen for a ride tomorrow im free all day (but would prefer a morning ride!)

What if you took the photo in the middle of the road when it wasn't officially open. Then when it gets tagged, the road has been opened. No way to take the "proper" tag.

Do you get a waiver for this Wysper? :bleh:

Of course, a real tagger would block the traffic to take the photo :)


LOR is a mobile shopwroom for Qmoto gear now a days !! I wonder if Brett will be handing out discounts to LOR members, I'm due some new pants shortly :innocent::love::innocent:

Gotta support the local ;)

[wysper]

Course not. HTFU and take the damn photo :yes:

Well...yeah...but I've only been past it about ten million times...and being as how I'm "as observant as a post" (according to a certain significant other anyway :angry:) I need all the clues I can get.

[wysper]

Old Tag: Pistol Club sign - Opposite Hamilton Airport

New Tag: First pic is tag. Other two are clues...including the GPS co-ordinates if you are technically inclined...




Mr Fox, where is your bike in the Tag photo LOL
I see a gps but not vixxen.

The Pedant strikes again.

[Bald Eagle]

I think there's a handlebar and bit of fuel tank in the GPS pic, how much "bike" has to be visible to satisfy the rules ?

[Murray]

Yep null and void!!! Do it right!!!

[slofox]

Try again - I WAS in a bit of a hurry when I posted that up...left out the vital bike pic...

Old Tag: Pistol Club sign opposite Tron Airport. 1st pic.

New Tag: Wind Power...Tag was supposed to be pic 3 - turbines. But better use Pic 2 with the bike in it. Rest are just clues.

The air was pretty manky out there this morning and even my Fuji camera couldn't see the turbines through the murk...If I hadn't been in such a hurry I might have sorted it better.

Less than 200! :gob: I did over 200km on Monday and that was around Hampton. The fuel light still hasn't come on. I thought new bikes were slightly better economy wise but not that much. Hang on...I suppose your tank is under 17 litres?

Hang on...I suppose your tank is under 17 litres?12 litres gets me 200ks. And that is taking it easy. Havent even tested the bike out properly yet and probably won't for awhile!

I was in that carpark the other week. Shame i only took photos of the hills and not the bikes!

Huh...gas light came on this morning on the way back into town...at 203km...that means it has used about 13.5 litres...6.67l/100km. Or 15km/l
...

Mind you, I can squeeze close to 300km from a full tank if I limit the right wrist and stay in 6th gear. But who wants to do that?

Rest are just clues.

You really haven't got a handle on what a clue is do you!!
There's a bit of a difference between giving a clue for us to work out where the new tag is, and telling us where it is - and an even bigger difference between a clue and giving exact GPS position, name of the road, nearest address........! :whistle:

Saw HOG on HOG this morning. Little black piggy in the back of a trike. Seemed to be enjoying his (her) ride...

I did go over to Raglan yesterday to fly the Suzuki flag amongst the Charley Fergusons...interesting morning.

First off, many of them were heading towards Hamilton as I went out. I would have seen maybe 50 or more, usually in packs of ten or so. I got ONE wave...:angry:

I also learned, very quickly, to keep way left on my side of the road. Why? Because I encountered several using my side of the road...can't imagine why. Which just goes to show that such behaviour is not confined to lunatic sprots bike riders after all...

Got to Raglan and parked the gixxer beside the hugest H-D I'd seen. Perhaps fortunately, I did not get to see the rider - no doubt he would've pushed a Suzuki over the rolled over it on his way out...:whistle:

Met a bloke who owned a CBR600RR. He questioned my sanity in bringing a Japper to such a rally. He'd left his in the shed all weekend...I told him "hell, I come over to Raglan regularly whatever happens to be on." Besides, nobody assaulted me nor me bike neither...basically everyone totally ignored me - as usual.

Plenty of chrome on display though - more shine than Macleans teeth. And lots of noise to go with it. I can imagine the more reactionary residents of the sleepy seaside hollow may have been pleased when it all ended.

Caught up to a pack of them on he way home - just at the bottom of the hill. The temptation to go blasting past the whole lot along Karakariki straight was almost overwhelming...but a little voice said "you're 60, not 16 - don't be a tit." And another voice said "don't listen to that namby pamby fuckwit - you're a long time dead. Get into it ya wuss!" By the time both voices had finished blathering on we were all at the end of the straight anyway so no go...

Overall it looked like a great weekend and everyone seemed pretty happy. I was glad I hadn't had to foot the bill for all the hardware that was on display.

Yeah. That is their rolling thunder ride. Was a pretty impressive line of bikes.
Our cat followed us down to the end of the road, once the bikes started coming she took off. We haven't seen here since. Kids are not happy about that.
Letter drop in local letter boxes, we are rural, so there is a pretty good chance she has been eaten by a local dog!

Mostly they will ignore other riders, but funnily enough, love waving to kids. Even when we were in the car later that day, if a bunch of them came past the kids waved and almost always got a wave back.

I didn't go, the whole big group thing isn't really my scene. But liked watching all the bikes go past. Plus I am an anti social git and prefer my own company or that of a few others.

Well now it appears that everyone knows where it is and no one is going for it (at least today anyhow) so thought I might take a wee ride.

The old tag was the old Tamahere Cold store.

No, not really
I didnt realise until after I had posted it up, it is of a different side of the church, the previous one was over a year ago. Honestly wondering if I can still be fucking bothered to get them with all the criticism.
Or perhaps just a random paddock and leave people guessing for years?????

There is a way to set it to a specific size but the others resized automatically. I have fixed that one but im sure there are a lot of others that need doing as well.

I was sure i went through and added the images to all of the tags on the map a long time ago but it appears all the early ones have gone and only the ones in the middle remain. That is the problem with an open collaboration it doesn't take much for people to ruin a few hours of solid work!

I think the best idea is for me to write a little program that generates the code required to get the images and links working correctly for the tag map.

[St_Gabriel]

Looks a little like White's Road...Te Waihou Walkway maybe...

Nope, sorry

[slofox]

Hmmmm...given the speed of the turnaround, it can't be THAT far away from the last one I wouldna thunk...

[Dodgy1]

Nope, sorry

So is it close the old one cos it looks kinda familiar.....

[St_Gabriel]

Sorry I couldnt "Cook" up a better clue in my haste.
One little tip, just checked google maps and if your using that, you are screwed

saying it's in a village is a bit of a push. it's like saying the tattoo shop is in a village too....

You'd have to mind you dont burn the cooking :innocent:

[bi-winning]

I got no idea where it is - but might have to go for a mindless search for it tomorrow... "Leamington Walkway".. Leamington aint a very big place, so hopefully its a succesful hunt.

Tag

I managed to find this after work,looked nothing like <A HREF="http://maps.google.co.nz/maps?q=cambridge+map&ie=UTF8&hl=en&hq=&hnear=Cambridge,+Waikato&ll=-37.900052,175.475693&spn=0.018422,0.042272&z=15&layer=c&cbll=-37.90013,175.4759&panoid=6dD-emaKEmU0q2mNTuRo5A&cbp=12,9.84,,0,0.8">The google street view</A>

Old Tag: River walkway sign in Leamington.
New Tag Hint: If your a Lycra clad cyclist you should know this sign on top of this hill... for the leather clad cyclist three words: Scotsmen Vally loop. :2thumbsup What a ride:yes:

Admittedly its more enjoyable on a 600cc ninja over a Giant TCR1 07 push bike

[sil3nt]

Your kidding! I went and did scotsman valley at around 3 yesterday. Might have to do it again.

[Toffee]

Hmmm, logged out of KB at 10 pm and the tag was sitting waiting and on the way to work!:yes:
Snapped the pic at sun up but when I got to work to upload - it had already gone!!:blink:

If I had a dollar for every time I'd been pipped at the post, I'd have.......4 dollars!

Still a quick game is a good game ..... and Scotsman's Valley could be a tempting detour home tonight....although someone will have probably nicked the tag....

Nice bike Toffee.

You would enjoy that ride on that bike.

[slofox]

Bugger. I was through there this morning...

[Dodgy1]

Went out looking for this today :facepalm: EPIC FAIL :facepalm: Couldn't find it.....Great day out though......:yes:

[bi-winning]

Went for a quick burn this arvo

Old Tag (Right Pic) - District Boundaries Sign

New Tag (Left Pic) - Pretty Awsome Lake, Just north of Hamilton...

This new tag is not far from hamilton at all, Fun ride too
Hint = This lake is so awsome they named after me (well google maps thinks they did anyways)!!!:yes: and I go past it every day to uni

[Dodgy1]

That was you I saw turning into fencourt road then......:yes:

[bi-winning]

That was you I saw turning into fencourt road then......:yes:

Na cant have been me... I didnt go near that road

[sil3nt]

New tag is nice and easy. Good little road. Love the big sweeping corners where the tag is.

Nothing to do tomorrow so if anyone wants to grab this together i would be keen.

[Dodgy1]

Damn....:angry:.....Why do these offers only come up when I have to go back to work??? :angry:

[sil3nt]

I'm pretty good at changing my plans last minute. Knowing me i won't head out at all.

[Dodgy1]

What about after work?? :yes:

[sil3nt]

What about after work?? :yes:Time? I have a game of cricket at 5.

[Dodgy1]

Time? I have a game of cricket at 5.


Nah thats no good bro....I'll be setting of about then...

[Toffee]

Nice bike Toffee.

For sure, poor bike, I have done East Cape, Napeir Taupo and Forgotten Highway on it in the last 12 months. I think it was probably designed more for straight bits of road but fun all the same!!

[slofox]

This was a bit of a mission - first off, Gull servo was broken down so no self serve petrol available - had to get Shell instead...
Secondly, fog! Although it was patchy, there was a shitload of it round the old tag - I was lucky enough to get a look through a thinner patch of fog for the pic...my intended new tag was invisible so had to look elsewhere - still foggy as you can see.



Old Tag: Lake D - Lake Road, off Horsham Downs Road...I think you can just see the lake through the murk...
New Tag: Another lake - "Long Lake" in translation. Close to home but you need the right layby to take pic from...

It will be tricky getting the right layby

[slofox]

You probably ought to get the fog just so as well...:whistle:

[STJim]

I am mystified by the latest tag another clue please?
