Full Version: Anyone Riding This Weekend?
Maybe Saturday? I ride pretty much every nice day but it gets kinda boring by yourself after a while...
I'm working all weekend 
i ride a lot, but i try not to go too far while i still dont have my front brake lever.
but if it gets boring, you can start a game. Tag-o-Rama. take a picture of your bike infront of a recognizable location, than some one takes a picture at that same location, than another one at a new location and so and so forth. i do it for another forum. its pretty fun, get to find a lot of nice roads that you may not have known about. if any one is down, i can post up the rules. would be cool to have one that stretchs across parts of RI and Mass.

absolutely.
ima go find the instructions, and post it here. and you guys can edit it so it will be easy for both cars and bikes and what ever else...
ok here are the rules:
umm, so edits on thatanyone? i copied it directly.
just have to figure locations: do you want to do all of RI and parts of MA? or parts of MA and parts of RI?
as fun of a game as this could be, im not drivin 3+ hours to take a picture so my two cents is to keep towards central-ish and eastern mass area and northern to middle ish RI plus maybe newport?

Basically, someone posts a picture with their bike in an identifiable location, the location may be a popular attraction or eatery or view or bridge or crossing or whatever. The location should be something that others would be able to figure out with some basic clues. The first person to claim the "tag" by taking a photo of their bike in the same location, and posting it in this thread gets to post the next photo or "tag".
Rules are easy...
Find the tag and reproduce the photo (as best as possible). POST THE PHOTO in this thread. Take the tag to a new location, get a new photo and post it here. Give a few hints so the next person can figure out where the tag is located.Make the clues clear and easily understood.
Try to place the tags in interesting locations, maybe a bit of history that can be found down some nice twisties.
Tag must be: a) findable &
not placed on a dirt road.
Maintained gravel is OK, but make sure to let folks know that gravel is required to get to your tag. We don't want to exclude those who don't like to get dirty.
The first person to post a found tag gets to place the next tag. If you get a tag, but somebody else posts their picture first, you lose.
One tag at a time. File photos are NOT permitted. You gotta ride to play this game.
Your bike has to be in the TAG picture.
Each new TAG must be within 50 miles of the previous TAG.
TAG must be located in MA or NH....(this is negotiable, but if we include VT and ME it will make it very hard for people to figure things out)
RULES UPDATE:
Well after much debate I think we should try the following. TAGS can be claimed and held with no new TAG posted right away. This is how its done on ADV and works well, and nothing is perfect anyways.
A NEW TAG must be posted within 24 hours of the claimed TAG. HOWEVER TAGS should only be left open by the claimer overnight if there is a real reason too. Real reasons would include weather (sever rain, thunderstorms etc) or you are doing a great ride first thing in the AM the next day, or you claimed the current tag late at night, like TED did yesterday for example, etc. Basically, you be the judge of what is a good reason.
IN GENERAL, all open claimed TAGS must be UPDATED WITH A NEW TAG by MIDNIGHT of the day you claim it. Keep it overnight and the full 24 hrs only if you must, try not to as it slows down the game.
Remember, you gotta be quick. Don't make the clues difficult, because it will come back and bite you in the arse. Also, bring your "A" game cause someone will have a tag and post another while you're thinking about eating breakfast
