Don't stress, this is how the game was in the early days. tough tags are fine. Tags don't have to be got instantly, it now has 3 players that know where it is and time will tell who will get it.
Four players. . . .

YAY ! I was/am feeling really guilty that I had broken tag-o-rama :)

I find it hard to gauge how easy/hard to make the pics and clues as some folks want the tag easily identifiable so the game keeps moving and others want it more challenging to find. Your views/thoughts/comments are welcome (either public or as a PM)?

The next question is who is going to brave the dark, the cold and the bugs to tag it !

I think the trick is to try and have a clue in your pic that can be searched, or failing that , give a written clue as you did.
I find after an hour searching, I tend to wipe it, especially if it is prime riding time.

Visible elements that can be searched for or landmarks that can be located or written 'hints' are all good and the odd harder one is good to. You can't break tag-o-rama we all nuts in here.

New tag coming up

Quasi
17th April 2010, 17:04
As most of you know yesterday was Cams birthday. To celebrate this most auspicious occassion he thought a ride to the far away climes of the hutt valley would be appropriate:yes:

I think he was rather shocked to see so many riders and their gorgeous bikes takeover the car park at Waikanae New World:gob:
I had come over from the dark side (with a tag in hand that needed placing) and met the valley/welly riders at Haywards. we had a very nice ride over the Paekak and into Waikanae to meet all Cams new friends. I am no longer a Paekak virgin. I hav:mellow:e now riden the hill from north to south and south to north:scooter: WooHoo - Its a great peice of road - cant understand why i had been so intimidated of it. I can see why you coastites love it so much.:yes:

After the obligatory smoke/fuel up bullshit that seems to go on in any group ride, it was time to move leave Waikane. Traffic control was needed to get us all out of there. Down SH1
Back over the Paekak, Haywards then onwards to Whitemans Valley. To a great wee cafe that the coastites know and have claimed as their own.

Only problem was me and Katiepie got lost before we had even left SH2:blink::bye:

But somehow we got found again:yes: we were hugely relieved to turn that corner and see our friends waiting on the side of the road. I just know they were not thinking - women navigators:2guns:

and then it was time for the great convoy of men, women (katie and Viv - love your riding- Viv - you are FAST) and their machines to take over the whitmans valley road and get to the famous short straw cafe. It was as good as they said.

after the obligitory food/coffee, watch Cam blow out his candle it was back on ride again going over some very nice back roads to come out in Te Marua.
Thanks Sly for waiting at the intersections:yes:. I had no idea where we were riding:shutup:

I also had no idea there were so many horses over that way, and they were all out playing on OUR road, and they didnt like the throaty rumble of all our machines. So we had to take it nice and easy. But - it was a nice and easy day, the sun shone, the sky was blue, it was warm. Winter seemed like many rides away

I turned right to play on my lovely Hill and the rest of the group turned left, and prob had another play on Paekak:scooter:

Was great to get out and meet you all - old friends and new.

First pic is the new tag . I know there are 20 odd other ridres who know where this is. Race on:scooter:

There is only 2 small sections of gravel, 1 as you cross an area where the road crosses an active slip and the last just as you get there. Probably about 200m in total. They've done an excellent job sealing all the rest over the last few years:yes:

Its great to have you back in the game Carla, which makes it a good thing, However, if you feel obligated to get it just because your over there, then dont.
If you dont feel comfortable gettingi it, there are plenty of other players around who will.
If it sits for a few days,or a week, who gives a damn, and if they do, they can get it.
It has been placed inside the boundaries set by the majority of players, so it is completely legit and it will be played.:)

Thanks Harry - no obligation. I will get it just because i am a damm competitive biartch, and want to go nab it before anyone else does. Fully intended to get today, but your fellow residents who were over here kept finding nice roads to ride, or was it me leading them astray??

Andy's Tag, Fully encompasses the original intention of the game which was to encourage people to get out and ride, and given that numbers have dwindelled a little over the last few months it may encourage a few new players to have a go. It is Ironic that the game starts to move further afield now that Summer has moved on - But all good. It is nice to see Carla back in the game but by no means should she ever feel "Obliged" to chase tags into territory of which she is uncomfortable.

Well said gents, wasn't meaning to whinge just having a bit of a poke for the fun didn't mean to offend anyone, and if Paul's leg wasn't crook he'd have been all over this, nice to see the tags moving about a bit more. Maybe one or two old hands might be tempted back into the fray as well.

wow - i m humbled that you guys are so caring. Please be assured that i never ride in places i dont feel comfortable in, never ride when my head is not in the right space...and never go over the speed limit:innocent::innocent:

Okay - extra big wow for the awesome ride i just had down to Ngawi. Last time i went on this road it was 60% gravel. Now its like SH1, long straights, a few nice sweepers and some small twisities. And to cruise along at a speed (not over the limit) with the ocean crashing just metres from my tyres was pretty magical. So thank you KL for placing this tag out on a part of NZ that is rather special and only 40 minutes from my door.
