Old Tag : Shoof International sign.
New Tag : Gudex Memorial park.
Was a good little road out there, and this is a who dares wins tag, you will need to ride up a gravel rd for a few hundred meters, just take it easy and its not to bad.

Been up there once when I had the SV. Nice ride.

Old Tag: Gudex Memorial, Gudex Road, up top of Maungakawa Reserve. Great view from up there. And a nice ride up the hill as well.
New Tag: That's a dairy factory you see in the background. The trick is to get that particular road sign in the pic...kinda east of SH1 - not too far off the beaten track. Even stay-at-home taggers should be able to find this one...
The Gudex Memorial is on the site of an old sanatorium. These places were usually stuck up top of some hill somewhere. I've always wondered why this was. Was it so the wind blew the contagion away from the general population? Was it because higher altitude was supposed to be somehow healing? Or was it just to give the dying a decent view to kick off from?
Verily, 'tis a mindfucker...

Old Tag: Stop sign ahead sign on Zigzag road with view of Hautapu Dairy Factory (not sure why the colour went weird?)
New Tag: Don ROWlands Centre
Went for a run up to the Gudex memorial after nabbing the tag. The place does have a strange 'feel' about it, specially at sunset. Then had a run over French Pass hence the lack of light for the new tag.
Another fine mess.

Old Tag : Don Rowlands Centre sign at lake karapiro.
New Tag : Animates.
Wasnt an easy sign to find at 10:30pm missed all the signs at first telling me where it is so i was just idleing along for a while till i spotted one lol.
Decided to use Animates for the new tag as my woman dragged me there the other day so we could get a pet bunny so i thought id go there and keep the tag local
for those who dont like to leave town and maybe get a race going.

its not a requirement to post the location of the new tag....but it keeps the game going i guess!

yeah i know but it provides more incentive for people to go get it.

Nice tag! Never thought of that. Once I get the new tyres on, IF it's still there I might just go have a look...
