The Waikato Tag can be a stop / start affair as well.

Anyway, if it's too cold for the BMW, ZX, K9 riders over there, I could always bring my 100cc scooter over next Wednesday and move the tag. A friends says he knows where this wooden pussycat is. I have to come over anyway.

Yeah, it's a big area, and costs probably don't help either. Still there's no reason not to make the tag something readily identifiable, so anyone can play, rather than relying completely on local knowledge. Just about every other tag here has some kind of sign or business name that helps out. With such a slow game as it is, it seems pretty pointless to me to make a tag that requires people to cruise around searching if they don't know where to find it, especially with the costs as you mentioned.

haha far out. all i was doing was taking my bike out for possibly my last ride of the season. did a local round that i like, which is around lake Rotorua, around Mt Ngongotaha ( which led me passed the tag you are so upset about) and then up the mountain for a nice LOCAL ride. i make no apologies for choosing my tag, as i said, i thought about putting it ouitside my gate, but thats not really in the spirit of it is it? from that ride tho, i did realise that there was no need to put it on hold and in the shed for the winter so it was all worth it for me. now to find this tag and put it outside my gate. have a great day everyone, the sun is out and it looks like a choice day in the bay for a ride.

Someone else just put the tag outside my gate (well not quite, but it would take longer to gear up and ride there than walk there).
Second time it has been put there, but I'll let it go because the sign is new (I helped put it in a coupe of weeks ago).
