All this zipping around town searching for tags has provided some great U-turn practice. On the downside I find myself looking everywhere but straight ahead :spanking:

[banditrider]

But where's the bike?

[mowgli]

:lol: i forgot that :bleh:

[mowgli]

Gonna have to invoke the "as best I can" clause on this one. Try as I might I couldn't get a good shot of my bike next to the first one way bridge on Turitea Road. Even tried using the headlights of a passing car to illuminate the shot. This One. (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=ruapehu+drive+palmerston+north&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=54.137829,79.013672&ie=UTF8&ll=-40.397704,175.643449&spn=0.00643,0.009645&t=h&z=17)

Next one's a gimme. Easily visible from the road.

[sparkles]

is that sign faded or did ur cam do that?

[bogan]

first one way bridge on Turitea Road

ah bollocks, though it was possibly that one but cudnt be sure

[mowgli]

Nothing fancy going on with camera. Even had fresh batteries after the Turitea flash fest. That's pretty much how it looks.

[mowgli]

ah bollocks, though it was possibly that one but cudnt be sure
I know a few people live down there so I know that we uphill chicane well :devil2:

haha, yeh tis a good un, actually i was quite impressed with the road up summer hill this arvo, pity its a residential area as would need at least 80kmhr to do them justice i reckon

[mowgli]

at least one I know of, pity I havent got a proper camera yet so cant do night photos :violin: ordered one off some numpty on tardme but think she may have been full of shit

[mowgli]

The area is very well lit. I reckon even a mobile camera could produce an acceptable shot.

[sparkles]

at least one I know of, pity I havent got a proper camera yet so cant do night photos :violin: ordered one off some numpty on tardme but think she may have been full of shit

or you could just pm me the loc:2thumbsup:msn-wink:

[bogan]

not quite where i thought it was, but the kharma of the bike wins! If you search for the tag, you shall come across the tag :yes:

and i still dont get the lodge reference, i thort the masonic was a hotel and bar?

[bogan]

That's it. The clue referenced the Free Masons -> Masonic Lodge -> Masonic Hotel. Perhaps that was a bit of a stretch.

[ynot slow]

Had it been mentioned goat shaggers we'd know it was lodge not pub.:scooter:

theyve made the barrier arms short so you just ride past them. Just watch out if theres are cage waiting for the barrier too they wont see you coming up on thier left.

Sweet tag i must say, i got four of you guys out looking for it!!

[Mandy]

Yea I tired to do that but I've got a stupid breath guard thing in the way. Ripping that off right now. I just 'stuck' it to my wet tank haha.

Uhh... come on next tag!!!

yeh first time i went in there i though i'd better be courteous and use the barrier, too much hand controls needed etc to be practical, managed to jam in in my windscreen, but a little tricky to pull out with gloves

Ah ha! There was a security guy standing on the footpath next to the barrier arm... didn't want him to slow me down!
Yea I had about 3 people try to back into me in about 10 seconds. Turns out my 250 isn't loud enough for them to hear me... going to have to hurry up and get my full so I can make some noise!!

yeh, i adopted the extra mobile approach when i went in there, just weave around them like a madman, and watch for those reversing lights!

I hear stebels (140dB horn) will get you noticed, i plan on getting one in the next kb bulk order.

[sparkles]

"Turns out my 250 isn't loud enough" hehehe my 150 IS!!!:Oops:

[slydesigns]

ummm guys and girls... bike entry is free in any barrier controlled park building in this country and even a toll road or two. The reason there is space to ride round the arm is just that... so you can ride round the arm. Ask the guards next time if in doubt, they'll say the same thing.

If its where I think it is, thats a very good tag, may have a pootle later if its still available

[bogan]

tagged, well, im going to have to invoke the best as i cud on this one, i have no zoom. Also had my bike in kinda the wrong place, there was another car there at the time. Location was the the end of pinfold road, on the other side of the river to the road constrction yard, took me ages to figure the other side of the river part out!

Yeap thats it! :niceone:
I figured it would take too long for people to get it if I didn't zoom in heaps.

Turns out that I need to buy a tinted visor and never take pictures with my visor up ever again!!!

hahaha, yeh i recognized the yard from the odd jog down the riverbank, but couldnt recal any bloody fences! nice work hiding the river from the pic had me confused for ages :confused:

edit: got my tinted visor (60% i think) for bout 60 bucks, real good for glare and whatnot in summer, bit dark for use on drizly days or night time though

[bogan]

I have a vision! of the streets of kelvin grove saturated by kiwibikers searching for this rather unremarkable photo op.

Hopefully it'll get quite a few out searching

best replicated tag is a good idea, nominations?, dunno bout the hall of shame for second place tags, it'd get mighty big. Could always do a hall of shame for any tag placing expiries (24hr period), tags outa boundaries, or other taggin fau-pas

I didn't. My other half works up at the windfarm sometimes so he knew where it was. I just followed him :sweatdrop
I have lived in Palmy for less than a year and have only had my bike for 2 and 1/2 months (go L plates!).... so yea, I really have no idea where anything is :whistle:

Now how about the next tag, Not that I can go get it or anything. Well not right now but maybe later when the wife is back from work and the kids are back from a birthday party:whocares:. So yaeh anyway next TAG please.

Ps well done on tag location, I was way out when looking for it. :wacko:

[mowgli]

I like the idea of extending the hall of fame. Fastest tag will change infrequently which kinda makes the hall a bit boring. If we want to avoid shit talk then we need to make the targets objective - ie based on some simple, irrefutable comparison. Subjective prizes requiring nominations sounds like something you'd dish out in a pub on a social evening when we can all share a laugh. So my ideas for objective (ie non-pub) awards are as follows.

1. Fastest Tag - awarded to the finder for being so quick.
2. Most bikes in a tag - awarded to the finder who shares the journey with the most mates.

I thought about hardest (or longest) tag but I don't think we want to be encouraging tags that are too obscure and difficult to find.

I'm sure you've got other ideas so let's have em.

agreed on the longest tag, dont want to encourage real hard ones. Most bikes is a good idea, are we sposed to be avoiding talking shit in this thread? ive kinda been going with an opposite stratergy there :whistle:

Nah, shit talk is all good. I am trying to save Owl from having to step in and rule when us kids can't can't decide who's the hottest tagger on the block. By the way that'd be me :dodge:

[mowgli]

Looking back through the thread there are quite a few tags with two bikes visible. The award for "Most Bikes in a Tag" goes to Mandy, Supersonic and =CJ= with three bikes in this tag. (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=1129398919&postcount=1034)

[bogan]

We cud always do a voting system on the tagorama website, im sure others would be happy to do the relevant coding for it. Gotta have something to do while we wait for the next tag, heaven forbid i actually get any uni work done today:crazy:

We cud do a hottest tagger, obviously the person with the most tags wud get it, a burst tagger, most tags in 24hr period for non voting ones, voting ones have been suggested earlier (i cud probly do a SIFT comparison on the images to get a non biased closest match score, but voting is better), also most ridiculous bike pose would be a good-un to add.


Since when was this a democracy?:laugh:

and if Owl wants to exercise his dictatorship vote, he can just fix the results!

[mowgli]

I'm not sure we have enough flex with a Google site to code a poll unless it can be done through Google Docs. How often would polls be run? Every time a new or interesting tag was made? I'm still thinking this would be something done less frequently in conjunction with beer and pizza. Then it could be run on KB as a poll attached to a thread.

I like your other options. I think we're tied for burst tagger :wari:

[mowgli]

Actually now that I check, I think Road King has it over both of us. We're tied three ways with three tags each in a 24hr period. I got 52,54,56 in 11:10 and 63,66,68 in 5:16. Bogan, you got 70,73,75 in 21:17. Road King got 76,78,80 in only 3:58!!!

Road King I think this prize is yours :first:

nother hint time, its taken looking onto a "tee off point" (is that the correct term) of a golf course, hence the use of 'par' in my post. The little yellow dots in the pic are the little yellow ball things on golf courses. furthur hint, its a palmy golf course, the shot is taken from a point not actually on the course.

Figured that's where it was. I trolled PN and Manawatu golf courses (and all the streets nearby) last night and concluded it was somewhere in TCOL. Unfortunately for me the security guys were doing their patrol and noticed me (acting suspiciously?). I didn't stop for a chat and missed the tag. So where's the next one?

whats wrong with taking a pic? is was taken from teh roadside so they shouldnt have any problems, maybe thier suspision was aroused by someone on a angry looking bike taking photos previously though.
