[BMWST?]

i need a clue.I interpret his as most likely a *** Service Centre but my searches so far have been fruitless,and i dont recognise the wall,or the houses beyond

[Cloggy]

Same here, totally lost without a clue. It's one of those ones you either know where it is, or you don't.

[Sketchy Snr]

X 3, A suburban workshop i'm guessing. Checked out a few today but no luck.

[BugSplat]

lost without a clue.

I didn't think it was that Challenge ing a clever hound should sniff it out in no time flat :psst:

[Cloggy]

Cheers, found it now but wouldn't have found it without that clue. There's a couple of taggers a lot closer to this one than me. Go get it guys! :ride:

[Cloggy]

Woke up this morning and surprised nobody had gone to get this tag yet. So jumped on the bike at 6.30am to get the tag. Got there at 7am only to find the camera had a flat battery. No problem, use the phone. Battery also too low to take a picture (one red bar showing) :brick: I guess I should have checked both before I left home.
So it's still over to one of you fellas.

New tag as long as Bald Eagle agrees, Got it on way home. Least amount of gravel to travel is probably about 40 metre's. Not sure if it's been done before or not.

50 or so metres north of the collect, 10 metres on the other side of the bridge.

[Hopeful Bastard]

50 or so metres north of the collect, 10 metres on the other side of the bridge.

Yupp. After reading all the messages i had a feeling it was close. But wasnt sure HOW close... So went ALL the way to the bottom end of moonshine park. Nup. Not there.

Turned around and went out the gate, Down the highway, Turned around, and then went back north, Pulled in and went to the far end of Poets Park...

Then there it was. Standing out in all its glory-ness.


Could've easily ridden under the bridge (Pretty sure thats what BD done) But didnt wanna risk dropping it as I dont know anyone here with a trailer to get me home....


Edit: You can see the sign if you zoom in from this image... http://maps.google.com/?ll=-41.122803,175.038098&spn=0.001049,0.001725&t=m&z=19&vpsrc=6&layer=c&cbll=-41.122775,175.037894&panoid=RccB5ev4Rrgo011k_1d_aw&cbp=12,27.03,,0,8.19

Checking in on mobile which is new for me how do i go to the last post nokia flip

My advice would be to get Opera mini for it, much better browser than the standard Nokia one when it comes to sites like KB... Atleast it is on my dumb "smartphone" (Nokia 6120c)

Geezuz KL that's a tricky one..... excellent angles there, so much is familiar but nothing quite recognizable...

[BMWST?]

not 100 percent sure of location but i definetly recognise a couple of features and they checkout on SV.Triangulation not conclusive as to actual position .

And here I was thinking that that big green roofed building would be immediately recognised by people... I do expect a bit of triangulation and exploration will be required to find the spot where I took the pic from once you have sussed the green building.

Clues available if required

Google has it at 52 Spenmoor St, Newlands (-41.233893,174.810703) (aka Newlands new rubbish tip)

and herein is the rub with this game.Typical wellington in that many views are sorta "new",and quite often (esp if zoom is used) distances are forshortened and whilst the view may SEEM familiar the forshortening makes thing seem unfamiliar.Zooming in can sometimes help but quite often there is not the resolution to get thefiner detail.The items that confirmed it for me waas the two Johnville mall signs and the ami building (and big yellow sign) on the corner.Alex moore park seems to be not where you expect and the swimming pool doesnt seem to be in the right place either(see above)

Have you worked out where the nearest mile/KM marker is? this has got me stumped

List 9

1 - A Town Hall building
2 - A peice/peices of metal sculpture/art - not the cast statue type.
3 - A mile/KM marker for 100 or a multipule there of.
4 - A Dam.
5 - A car from before 1970.

i told/asked him about mile markers.We dont have the kind of thing he is talking about so i asked him if he would accept a uneven one(say PALMERSTON NTH 126km but i have nt seen a reply.The other tricky one for me is a pre 70s car.That may not be a problem for you going by your avatar!

Clue:- I had to go shopping out Porirua and Mana today

now here is a typical scenario!The skyline at Porirua and Titahi Bay have those strange spindly trees,but i coulda sworn that this was the skyline of Tinakori Hill now tha they have cut a lot of the old pines out.maybe viewd from the cable car....how wrong!

[TrentNz]

Oh man... my only road legal bike started making a horrible noise in the front assembly coming home on the Paekakariki hill today (380kms into a awesome ride through Southern Rapa and the P track etc)

I am so sure I know where this one is but have to ride to the spot to check...in fact I am pretty damn sure I planted those trees behind Aaron's bike!

Because it was probably some aresehole driving it as if they were in a rally.
I've almost been taken out a number of times on that road with cages who cross the white lines.
