Guest Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Don't know how this normally works, but anyone in the East Midlands fancy meeting up one (dry) Sat or Sun in late Jan to tick off a few from the list? Haven't even got a bike yet, but am already keen to find reasons for going out, and would be nice to meet some of you lot too! Yes I'd be well up for that as it means meeting people and riding, though I'm not yet sure what this thread is about!Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

onesea Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 OK I stuffed up.... I was at a tag and did not include my number will this be accepted (my Trophy and good lady on the right)...http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/u654/onesea/2017%20tags/20170110_153409_zpsswwkjo2m.jpg
Hoggs Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 OK I stuffed up.... I was at a tag and did not include my number will this be accepted (my Trophy and good lady on the right)... We're gonna need written statements from all those other people stating the exact time and date you were at said location, then there will be a detailed investigation on local CCTV and an appeal for 3rd party witnesses to back up your claim of being at said location this year

There are a few of us who do a similar tagging thing down here, this year its museums and GoG actually managed to choose the same place. So that photo is actually for another Tag, The reason for the group ride.... We score double points for a photo with 3 or more bikes :D the number of group rides has increased!As for going back actually I probably will its meant to be a worth whilst museum to visit....
Grumpy Old Git Posted January 12, 2017 Author Posted January 12, 2017 I would give you the tag but.... You have volunteered to go get it again Next time, grab a few twigs (or stones) and make your tag number - simples!
Throttled Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 I have begged a piece of paper and borrowed a pen before. I do thing we need to be strict on your number has to be in the photo.

Tango Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 From a standing start, GoG 'Rockets' into third place (or not if the scores were updated...).Anyhoo - A grand day out Gromit. Saw you heading into GT Paxton earlier, GOG.......I was in the car heading towards St Neots to pick up my eldest lad to take him for lunch......I guessed that you were tagging......
Grumpy Old Git Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 Could not resist it - weather was reasonable and I had just finished rebuilding the shaft drive (full maintenance check - no problems at all).You must also have spotted my new (Christmas Prezzie) Jacket!No problem about being 4th Throttled - Just good to be 'out and about' on t'bike again.
