i need you guys to think about what you actually need in the way of maps and stats...i am getting pissed of with keeping them up to date.Last night for example by the time i had finished doing the stats sheet i couldnt be bothered finding the landscape place.
i am going to simplify it no matter what.I will stop recording statistics for where the tag was as far as locality and for what day it was taken.I will change the sheet round a bit so it is a bit more user freindly and then the person who grabs the tag can update it themselves??

I can see the frustration. It's a good idea to simplify the stats sheet and have the taggers edit it with the map.

Someone had done a great page with all the pics a couple of months ago. Could we use the same method to calculate the stats? Maybe something to discuss in the discussion thread?

just have who and what bike... forget the rest and if someone doubles up we can persecute them..??

well i have simplified the stats sheet and it is editable by anyone.The front sheet is a summary,the middle sheet is where you enter your claim and where you enter you posting up of the new tag.Just enter your name date and time.Columns in green have formulas in them.The last sheet is where you enter your names and bike choice for the group tags.In all cases the bike choice is semi automatic,you just have to enter 1 or 2 in the column and the appropriate bike make will appear.

Long sank mate

that boat was a bit bigger than the Arrow too
Go take a close look, it has no flat cargo deck, just a big empty cavity where the 'hatch' used to be and another where the 'pound' is at the back of the wheelhouse
Trust me it NOT the King Kong boat, its the dirty old Arrow

I am sure the KK boats been sunk already, or its simply off screen if still at the wharf, that boats my old ride during Hoki season

Yeah! I dropped the tag off at the Zoo about a month ago. With so many tags already done, it''s getting harder to find new ones. Never mind. With the improvement of the weather, the distances WILL increase.

The current tag will definately be gone by the time I get there if B/E already has it locked and loaded.

i used to have the 400 and the 750 version as well,
the 400 was brilliant and handled not to badly,
the 750 suffered from the shit air shock and soft cams like the 1000,
although this vf1000 hasnt suffered from the soft cams, but i had to get the rockers resurfaced,
and the rear shock is just shit... i mean shit, really really shit,
so shit its a danger to ride at any speed, you can get airborne just by hitting a bump on the road,
im going to get a hagon for it, but diverting funds for it is proving rather futile at the moment :D

maybe it's a Honda thing the rear shock on my VFR is shit also, and the great quality surface on SH 1 means it bounces like a bastard at any speed even though I've tried all the preload settings.

i like your beemer, id like to own one .... one day
have you had many issues with the bing carb?? i had no end of trouble with the original float, and ended up having to get a ethanol resistant one from germany, that didn't soak up the fuel like the original foam one does

just had all the o rings and bits and peices redone,bike runs much better but not as cleanly as i think it should(could) Mechanic says he doesnt often repace floats....Was dribbling fuel out prior to rebuild

hmmmnz
27th November 2009, 15:46
the original floats absorb water, so after a while never close the needle,
i had problems if i adjusted the tab to get it to shut off fuel when it got too high, it would run out of fuel when gunning the engine,
and the other way about it would leak as soon as you stopped revving.
idealy i'd run a mikuni vm34, but because of the frame design on the mz i can't fit it in :(

Well as they say excrement occurs .... there's always another tag out there waiting. and although I ID'd the new one couldn't remember the right road and it was persisting down by then so puddled on home. :rockon:

No doubt B/E will have it locked and loaded on the flight path very shortly.

Damn, miles of my "flight path".
Finding the substation is easy. Locating the position from where the picture was taken was a little more challenging.
But that's the way I like them.

i just found it as well,
i just used google maps sat veiw and slowly moved up, then when i found the station, i figured from bmws pic and the fact that he said it was around 630pm
that the place would be just slightly east of south,
and being that he gave us 164 on the letterbox,

it was pretty easy from there,

no wonder i couldnt find the place when i was looking at the haywards substation.... i was starting to doubt my maths ability :D

you are starting to see why the use of file pics can be misleading...its why we state when they were taken.There are ussually clues in my pics,i dont like hours of searching,but i like them to be interesting places and also "nice pics".
I wanna see the substation.

Locked , loaded and a slight detour in the flight path (actually, it's completely in the wrong direction but who cares). BUT, The bar has been open for quite a while and the second bottle of red has just been opened. Hic!

Hey! but who cares. Laxi say's it's ok for Donna ta cuddle me over the Takas.:whistle:
