TC Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Sorry Frankie You can't have "The County of" or "The village of"I let you and Jo have "Bigger village" and "Milton keynes village" as that is the actual name of the place not the description.Hope this clears up any confusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 New game for all "Bike Scrabble"New rules for JuneNames have to contain at least the first or last letter of the previous townThe next person's picture has to contain the 1st or last letter of the previous town. So to follow Hull, you could have anything from Ullapool to London. This enables everyone to join in, no matter where they are in the country (even abroad, as long as the letters are English)You only count the letters from the Name not the "Welcome to the city of" Seems simple enough to me. Mojos is legit, thats the name of the place.Try not to get bogged down in the detail people. Once again, this is designed to get people out and about, riding roads they wouldn't normally.The points, as you know, should be second to the riding.

GarethNW Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I know I am competative but having a reason to ride the bike that the wife buys as an excuse is fantastic!I cant do pointless ride outs, but if I get fish in chips at the end of a 200 mile ride count me in!

Guest Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Dan, my post doesnt include "welcome to...", and if so then BigSis post is illegible, sign is not readable, and GarethNW first post is NOT a town sign but some wall, i did give them the benefit of the doubt, but just thought as we were all being open, and picky..

mojobanana Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Sorry Neil, I saw you'd dropped off and added you back on but then you seemed to drop off again. Thought you'd decided not to take part and I'd missed it. Really need more time out on the bike to get my score up! What's happened to the weather? It's pants!!!

TC Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Frankie if that is the Welcome to Road sign its fine by me.The game is simple, its an excuse to get out on the bike and go to places you wouldn't normally go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
