I don't do mornings very well, especially in the weekends, and that's likely the best time to steal it back :-)
plus I'm a bit financially (and temporally) underresourced at the moment, and my bike drinks rather more than it should :-(

Theoretically, I'd like to see it move around further ... practically, I'm unlikely to go chasing much at the moment, so it doesn't matter :-)

No bad feeling here Devo. Life is too short to get hung up on something so trivial. I'd be quite happy to catch up for a beer or go for a ride with you guy's.
I've dropped out for my own reasons which has been well documented and put to bed.

This was more of an observation and suggesting a reason. If you look at the regular players now, people like myself, KGB, Aero, Cloggy, Drogen, Jiminy, RWH, even Stoney to some degree, and Laxi due to his inability to keep his bike running for various reasons :bleh: , have been absent from the game for a while.
This means that apart from BMWST who placed the tag, there aren't that many active Welly/Valley players left.

Un fortunately, its one of those things that happen over time, and I dont know of a fix without bringing in more rules which are a game killer in themselves.

tiger does look interesting.I have a attaraction to the bigger front wheels and the shaft drive.Being rather tall the height and size of these bikes works in my favour.I dont really envisage me doing any real trail work,but the occasional gravel road jaunt which might involve a stream etc are no problem for these bikes.I have had some fantastic days exploring the back roads of the rapa.Also with the good steering lock they are good for exploring urban streets too.It will all come down to what the price difference is.

I honestly think its the speed and competiveness of the game that has put people off.I dont really mind going to get a tag and missing out but i have to beleive(however naieve) that i can get it.If i think i have no chance i wont leave home.That can get tiresome.I guess most people will just go for their own ride instead.

I like the style and the shaft drive but at the end of the day its going to be some sort of trade off between price and the reality of my dominant use which is highway commuting at the moment. But at the moment the dreams are still free.

of course.There is no trade of in performance or comfort for these 'big adv' for highway use.In fact they are probably more comfortable .But they do command a premium in price.

Sorry about the imperfect reproduction - I couldn't remember what it looked like when I got there, apart from the existence of the wooden fence thing.

But what a lovely afternoon ride it was.

[BMWST?]

It certainly was. I'm guessing that's what slowed you down, since I got up to Lindale and (somewhere else and) home again after this before posting :)

[KapitiLizard]

You were quite a bit ahead of me (your pic taken about 4:50 and mine was taken about 6:30). But you are right, I got lost on the Rimutakas and had to keep riding up and down lots of times till I found my way out and back home. Traffic was light, sun-strike was bearable, road was warm and dry and clean. It was worth losing the tag for all the fun I had.

Thanks heaps to cloggy for getting me off the sofa

Yes, a confusing road that - so many bends, you lose your sense of direction :rofl:

Agreed - me likewise.

Not a file pic; I've come straight home from this.

Car park at the end of Whitehouse Road, Titahi Bay. Bowling club in the background - and, no, I am not a lawn bowler :lol:

Nice one. Did you have some intel on that , I'd been searching all the RSA's and War Memorials, wouldn't have even thought of a Bowling club.

[rwh]

Very good :)
I hadn't even noticed it was a bowling club - I found it several weeks ago, cruising round looking for something interesting to tag, but didn't feel like stopping there at the time, in the dark and with 'loitering youths'.
I would have described it as 'Carpark at Titahi Bay shops', since that's the sign I followed to get there.

No intel required. I had been there years ago. I couldn't quite place it - but it came to me in the blinding flash of light this morning after the coffee kick-started the grey matter

The funny archways on the shopping centre would have also made an interesting tag

[KapitiLizard]

And speaking of arches, this new one is a file pic (taken 3rd Feb mid evening)

I rode between some bollards to get here as the access gate was closed. Access is easy for all normal size bikes, just don't try to squeeze the Gold Wing thru :msn-wink:

Nice dog. Does he ride on your tank, or do you have a bag for him like I have for Mr Woofy?:rofl:

[Scout]

Ahhh Yes, used to ride the Mountain bike through those arches daily for ages - once too often at speed meant grinding knuckles on the brick work.

Could be a bit of a race now as I'm pretty sure at least two others have it locked, possibly more now.
