driveway just before James Cook Drive, partanui inlet coming from porirua

[aer0]

yup thats the one, well done dude.

amazing how many people go past it and didnt realise.

moving on.. new tag tonight.. i might be able to rock out after bailey goes to sleep

[Laxi]

faark it! when I know where the tag is I dont have the gas! when I got a full tank, I never know where the tag is! screw it might have to take a ride just for the hell of it:clap:

Nice one Aero - as you say - how many times have we ridden past this:niceone:

[Scout]

Well done Aero, i knew you wouldnt have posted one that seemed so elusive unless it was right under all of our noses.

[Drogen Omen]

ok here is the new tag + an extra Adventure one from same area. if you get both i will buy you a beer or two...

the extra two pics should be clue enough to what awesome gate this is... hehehehe gate pics rule...!!!

[StoneY]

Nice one Aero - as you say - how many times have we ridden past this:niceone:

Daily- nearly every one of us at least within THIS week for sure (then again Greys is my more common route these days)


Well done Drogen,:second:
Im gonna have to sack my Submarine commander for giving me false co-ords :nono:

[Drogen Omen]

hmmm no chatter going on... everyone must be out searching the countryside for my tag... heheheh

[aer0]

yeah jane convinced me that the bottle of port needed finishing off...

sorry no tag

[KrazyGixxerBoy]

yeah jane convinced me that the bottle of port needed finishing off...

sorry no tag

...same goes for me...but it was ME who convinced me...and it was bourbon. :2thumbsup ....I'm drawing a :blank: so far on the tag anyway!

[Drogen Omen]

CLUE: the bright light on the left is Silverstream Golf Range.

[Bald Eagle]

....Must have been something in the moonlight. Also needed little convincing for a steak dinner and wine at The Waterfront ... lovely sunset no thoughts of tags

[Drogen Omen]

....Must have been something in the moonlight. Also needed little convincing for a steak dinner and wine at The Waterfront ... lovely sunset no thoughts of tags

it was very nice in the moonlight... i stayed up there for a good 40 mins just looking out over the valley... (another clue...!)

[WuZards-Eugene]

Im sure ive seen a gate similar, but I really don't think anyone would put a tag there, I'll keep thinking.

[Drogen Omen]

will put up another clue at 10...

man its boring when your the one that puts the tag up... almost want to give it away just so i can chase after the next tag... hehehehe

[WuZards-Eugene]

Are the other two pictures taken from going through the gate?

[Drogen Omen]

Are the other two pictures taken from going through the gate?

yes they are...

i think he knows where this is...

[BMWST?]

yes they are...

i think he knows where this is...

can you see the gate in street view?

[Drogen Omen]

it can't be seen from street view.

[Drogen Omen]

Huge Clue: turn right and go up the hill at the end of Blue mountains road...

now go get it...

[Bald Eagle]

No wonder I couldn't find it I been looking on the other side of the valley :doh:

[Drogen Omen]

man i might do easy tag's from now on so i can be in the game quicker...

am so bored sitting here waiting for some one to get the tag and post a new one...

last Clue: top of Avro road. take pic of gate, then go round the gate and follow my map to the adventure tag... sorry no beer for the winner anymore.

now get going:scooter:
...

[BMWST?]

right at the end(actually past the end)of Avro Road
More soon I got me a KTM to test :woohoo:

edited

was pretty easy in the end,I recognised the golf driving range and that were about that we were about perpendicular to it.....after a bit of work on google satelitre view and a look around this morning there was only one place high enough on the line i had setimated.

Was a bit tricky though Drogen,I first disregarded the private road and went through past some concrete blocks on the left and down a few tracks(NOT road bike friendly)
and even after i decided to go past the sign I went down a few tracks and got stuck once when the track became to narrow to turn round...ignoring potential paint damage and the gorse pushed through a couple of gorse bushes and turned round,and finally found the spot i think you used!


edit i realise my view of teh gate is from the wrong side,but i thought i had done it wrong when i saw this on the way in...this BEFORE the gate

To be honest what the fuck do people expect with the;
A quality of them photo's
B how dark they were
C A GATE in the bush- yep real neat - we all pass that often I am sure

DONT bitch ya tag was 'too hard to find'
YOU set it - so for you its easy

I persoanly get a buzz if my TAG is too hard to find- HTFU

[WuZards-Eugene]

Ive been past it quite a few times.

[BMWST?]

I knew there were tracks around there from my MTB ing...a private road is important Drogen,you should have at least posted it was a private road, and i think you must have,cos i bet it aint the first time you have been down there the other night.It may not be important to you but it may be to some,especially the people whose road it is.
I cant beleive that you would find that spot in the dark,never having been down there before.Although it may be easier to find in the dark!
People can then make their own choice wether to go and get the tag as i did when i saw the sign.The other thing ,it was big bike unfriendly.I am not baggin you mate,just make these things known when posting a tag.I am not saying a big road bike couldnt have got that but some (low ground clearance and limited steering lock) could not have got past the gate.

My Duc alone has done 6k in 2 months- I aint no desk pilot (well not by choice)

Edit: as BMW states- gotta consider all bike types in placing a TAG- I always give fair waring of: gravel, gates, footpaths, etc.
We aint all on the mighty gee en bloke ;)

True, sorry I've never though of that before and also never seen that sign. I haven't been up there since the logging started and since that sign says something bout logging it must have gone up when they started.

usually i go up there on my dirt bike but i go in though the silverstream water tower area.

I apologize for any problems that could have been cause by my tag.

will have to be more vigilant next time. maybe it's time for some rules to be placed on page 1 of this forum.

* must ride a motor vehicle that requires a Class 6 license
* tagers must look out for signs if near or in private property
* other stuff i cant think of...

I am not going to post any more rules....the rules already state about road bikes gravel etc...and i dont think we should post tags on private property,I think that is common sense,but if you wanna just make sure you post up the "conditions" of your tag.I woulda got yoer tag yesterday if i wasnt in Christchurch!

In the photo, there is a landmark that is almost obscured by my instruments. Once you see it, go forth and tag!

[WuZards-Eugene]

Nobody's got my alternate tag yet (on page 6), whats up with that.

Just for the record aswell, this one is not big bike friendly, there is gravel, dirt, pine needles, steep inclines, and it is DoC land. Now who's gonna go get it??? I can join anyone who is going up there if they like.

Wanna loan me a bike that you don't mind me probably damaging in the act of trying and I'll give it a bash. :laugh:

Cos I doubt the bandit would make it far up the track behind my old house. :crazy:

I could lend you the AG to give it a try. My scooter made it about 3/4's of the way there (during summer). As long as your accuracy is spot on you shouldn't have any problems (some parts you've got about half a meter wide area where the bike will go through, with a bank on one side, and a cliff on the other) I can follow you up on the XR. Haven't taken it up there yet but ive gone up on both AGs and was easy as. Give me a yell if you're interested.


Going trail riding in the akatarawa's for the weekend, ive got an extra bike if anyone wants to join in. Going in saturday, coming out sunday.

Nah, no edit. I try not to if at all possible.

Let's not see this one left for dead, huh? Would be a shame to see it languish in daylight hours to have someone roar over there at night. It seems like an awfully quiet neighborhood!

Mind you, the damage is probably already done since my "muffler" is close to "waking the dead" levels! :eek5:

Ha Ha, It is Exactly where I thought it could be all along, but street view doesnt even go there - Now, there is still nothin I can do about it.
Looks like the Welly Boyz are so used to it being on the coast by now they dont even go after it.

[aer0]

i know the place dammit, cant go and get it!

[BMWST?]

In the photo, there is a landmark that is almost obscured by my instruments. Once you see it, go forth and tag!

jeepers,only just noticed the significance of this clue

[Sketchy Snr]

Everyone must be busy today, or is it to wet down Welly??. Thanks for the extra veiw BMWST, it was where i thought it was but like Scout i couldnt get it on street veiw enough to convince me to go that far to see. Might now though.

Its an easy tag- the wall structure behind his bike is unique to the SH1 motorway overpass construction done in the 70's

If I had checked before leaving work would have been gone

welly riders,what happened?
Actually is the Effluent disposal facility next to Ngauraunga rail station.A railway line used to run through the tunnel in my last pic,so someone used their noggins and utilized redundant facilities to cater for another requirement.
As usual Sketchy Snr good work!

[Scout]

Well Done Sketchy,
Looks like no one was going to put up a fight this weekend.

Thanks mate. Really enjoyed the ride to, execpt the Plimmerton roundabout. Its allways seems to be slippery in the wet and catches me by supprise.

If your New Tag is still sittin there this time tommorrow Snr I'l go get it, although I still have to work out exactly how you got so close to the errrrr ........... Yellow thing. :innocent:
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - figured.

well the game is making me relearn some things...I never knew Plimmerton had a Train enthusiasts organisation,turntable or water tower.I knew the Paekak one was wrong cos the tank wasnt the right colour or in the same state of repair.When i got home and saw that i was indeed wrong i searched for railway turntables(you can see it in the front right of the pics) and the second result was Plimmerton,a quick look at satelite view gave me a pretty good idea of where i though the pic was taken,but i overshot the entrance the first time.So i have been round Sketchy's roundabout 4 times today the last time was nearly a complete revolution.

new tag about 8 30 pm guys...

Well Done Gents, at first glance I think everybody assumes Paekakariki, but the Hill in the Background was the Clincher when I saw it, Good on sketchy snr for showin us all something none of us probably knew existed, and for keepin the Tag within reach of everybody ....... considerin there seems to be a low turnout this weekend.:Punk:

P.S. Senior, your Bum don't look Big but I do wonder why you need to carry TWO purses ????.

Well Done Sketchy, I was just contemplating whether or not to do a Midnight Run on this one, funnily enuf one of our Main Worksites is Smack bang next to this New World on Murphy st - used to be a brewery too at one point ( may have been DB ) and yet ive never noticed this old building - gonna have to keep an eye out for it now.

[Sketchy Snr]

correct,damn you are good

Looking at that building my first thought was Railway station, then your note gave it away " old brewery ". Looked at Cable St but thats a existing brewery. All the brickwork is so similar they all must of been built about the same time. Very good tag BMWST.

[Bald Eagle]

Search Wgtn historic listed buildings came up with Thorndon Brewery Murphy St but too late as it happens. Also realised I'd seen this building from the Molesworth St side lots of times as used to do work across the road.

The way to this one is not without its hazards, so take it easy. It's windy - in both senses of the word, all too tempting to break the speed limit and with gravel, heavy machinery, and a big patch of muddy standing water to watch out for. See my timing cover for recent evidence of the latter.

'86 BMW R80 Mono - dry weight: 183kg
'02 Ducati 750 SS - dry weight: 183kg

Underpowered perhaps, so relatively speaking, you may be right. You've got 14HP on me but only 2Nm! How cheap are you? I've never got gas in the tank, so I could even be lighter! How many pies for lunch?

I'll live with the wide. Not much more than the handlebars in any case!

Not gonna compare to the Suzy...

And as for Bee Ems making it places - watch till 1:30 for a real GS, not these new pretend ones.

If you click on the "More..." tab in Google Maps and select photos, there's a panorama of those hills after they've been logged. I wasn't sure how obvious the logging would be to everyone though.

looked like it was!
Yeah, I'd planned on just pulling up to the gate, but when I saw it was open I couldn't resist going in and parking up!

Anything on the road to the 8-5 desk is always fair game .. but windy gravel is a bit too much of a detour. :laugh:

Isnt gravel,but its a narrow very tight road in some places....its worth a look,its hard to beleive after a few minutes that just over the hill is Wellington.If you have time go right out to Makara

New tag.

Hopefully not a repeat, but I only read about the first 40 pages last night ... I don't see it on the map, though.

Thanks all :)

Jiminy mentioned it months ago, but my bike must have been out of action at the time; I didn't take much notice, and forgot about it. But then I found it again last night, and it sounded just my kind of thing :)

Yep; saw that, checked both :)

Actually that wasn't the tag I had in mind when I set out - but when I got there, I wasn't convinced my bike was going to withstand the wind while I got the pic, so I had to find somewhere else. I'll have to save the other one for next time ...

Sorry mate, didn't mean to give the wrong impression with that description - I just meant to say that there was the odd patch of the stuff!

[Jiminy]

And here is the tag, by the race course and the very end of Mansfield Street :)

[Jiminy]

And the new one...

Apologies for the riders far far away, but I didn't feel like braving the wind tonight. No gravel or private road, but possibly a few fishes and a kayak or two nearby (especially on Thursdays).
