@Hoggs its all official now! you have a countdown timer! you need to pull your finger out

Can I get 57 & 1/2 this time please?

Are you going to be difficult all year?

Wow Hoggs, I hear you say, registration up already??? Does that mean you have done all the tags for next year???

 

Ha! No. But people wanting to do it will spur me on. so sign up! SIGN UP NOW! DO IT DO IT! 

 

For you old hands you know how it works and various other threads will pop up along the way.

 

For the new shiny players - Hi! Welcome! So you probably want to know how it works right?

 

Job number 1: Sign up here - pick a unique number of 3 digits or less, first come first served. Same number, different number, I don't care. Post below with your request and you will get added to this post. (hey, I hear you say, how come @JRH already has a number?? He has a lot of dirt on me. Also, are you allowed to play as you set it?? Check out my previous year scores I can assure you it is not a fix)

The list of awesome will be posted up on the evening of the 31st but entries will not be accepted before the 1st. Side bets on who will win first post out of JRH and @CB999 will be accepted whilst requesting your number.

 

You will be required to take a picture of you in bike gear / your bike with your number visible in front of the location and post in the relevant picture thread to score points. Although I am pretty chill on how much of either need to be in the picture and if you forget your number creative alternatives will be accepted. This is a compulsory fun based activity

 

 

You will get 10 points per picture and 50 bonus points for completing a set (sets are colour coded by region and there are a couple bonus categories)

 

As before if you can name your pictures with the tag reference that makes my life easier and it normally takes me the whole year to get over setting this so don't make me sadder.

Like a Christmas miracle the map link will appear after dark on the 31st December (hopefully).

As usual there will be a discussion thread for you to argue with me in  

 

 

Wow sounds amazing sign me up I hear you cry! Is there a prize for the winner? Yes a low res jpg of a trophy, I spoil you I really do.

whilst your in the planning stage, I appreciate its even more work for you but can the north and east England be spilt into two regions next year with 15 in each like the other regions? 

Maybe

Will there be a challenge next year? I fancy taking part if it is.

Hey hey

 

Yes. I'm attempting to start on it now but it will inevitably be panic on the 28th like every other year

Thanks for the update @Hoggs

Looks like I missed out posting the pic of KNIGHTSHAYES, unfortunately it has been permanently deleted & gone to pixel heaven only to be reborn as an AI generated video of Nigel Farage getting spanked by Ru Paul

.... I mean...

 

OK well if you swear on this piece of cheese   you did go I'll give you the points 

Yeah totally updating the scores when I said I would....

 

 

@oldgrump 1790 Storms back into the lead!! (background booing)

@teo63 - 970 A solid second!! 

@Fiddlesticks - 785 Somehow I seem to have given you oily rag twice so I'm trusting you are accurate in your scoring as I can't be bothered to see what I have missed lol

@ANDY_FZS600 - 610 great first season!!! 

@Mickly - 610 points amended as per cheese promise.  I seem to be missing Knightshayes Gardens National Trust? This will give you 10 + completion for 610 if you have it to hand!

Is it spring yet I must be getting bored already! I've added my photo tags to a copy of @Hoggs map as a reminder of warmer, happy times.

I've learned some lessons with this game this year, so hopefully next year will be better!

I've learned not to move house half way through the season

lol lost track of the days and forgot to switch out bautista.. so probably not going to be good points scoring for me... again... lol

1 minute ago, JackieOWheels said:

He certainly did, finally back to form! Just 3 races from the end of the season

better late than never! 

 

also Bautista got me 5 points. I'LL TAKE THEM!

oh man... I was so tense all race..

 because generally people I put in my team do reeeeaaaaally badly. But the kid did good
