oo that sounds fun! I'll start tomorrow

New one-

Moved to Rallies & Events by request.

Wow that was quite a drive! Did you do that in one day?

Sure did. I live downtown Left around 7:30 got home around 11:00 including coffee break and getting lost.
Someone get this last one!

P.S. see my new 10" rear wheel?? Going to get around the putting a new fork and 10" wheel on the front in about a week or so

My husband was behind you on Carmel Valley Road this morning - impressed that you were out there early playing tag. I'll get yours tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I know where that is.

GOTCHA!





(I was enjoying a Caprese sandwich and admiring an antique Porsche when I realized, "This is my tag picture!") Ready... Set.... Go!

All I have to say is Yay! One of my goofy stolen ideas has actually worked.

It is't limited to California folk. Let's do have enough of these so Jess has to create a new forum for Scooter Tag. Lets see if we can get bannination at most workplaces!

Now about that idea I 'borrowed' about organizing the interwebs and making it searchable.....

Love the Smokey & the Bandit quote!

"Junior, there's no way, *no* way that you came from *my* loins. Soon as I get home, first thing I'm gonna do is punch yo mamma in da mouth!"

Aw, GeoEnvi, you're too quick! I was there today and got the photo of the bridge at the park, too. I don't know where yours tag photo is - Little Italy, maybe India Street? I guess I need to do more cruising around downtown.
Thanks VP1 for the inspiration to take a ride around Coronado. It was a beautiful day for it.

What the hell, still post it! :-p

Does an Aerostar work?
The store is Mona Lisa. on the corner of India and Hawthorne. Their caprese is awesome!

I'll have a new one up tomorrow

ok

Good job finding "Mona Lisa" VP1. Lunch there sounds like a plan for next week. Eagerly awaiting your next tag photo!
(Thanks for the great idea, Ritch. This is fun!)

A.ma.zing.

I only know one Italian restaurant in San Diego, and it is that one! I thought of it when I first saw the picture, but I wasn't sure (and certainly not close enough to ride over and check).

I took this one last week, and it's kinda close to my last one, however, I don't want to keep you guys waiting till tomorrow for a new one. Plus it's a nice place to go. So here you go!

Does this count? I was there...Simpsons style

haha. you've got too much time on your hands! now go ride there!

I've got another spot in mind San Diegans if no one wants to get that last one. I think I'll go hit it up today and put a new picture up for you guys to get
unless someone is planning on getting this one..

no no no, don't post another one. It's not how it goes. Someone will eventually go there (hint hint). I just finished animating my new Sig file.

Not exactly the same angle/location, but pretty close. (It was crowded today!)



How's this for the next location? Too easy?

Good job! That's close enough for me
Hmmm, I wonder where your picture was taken...hmmmmmm

Waaaay too easy!

Too easy? Then Tag!!! You're all 'it'! The next photo is (hint) at the end of a President's avenue. If it's too hard, reply and I'll provide more hints. It's actually not too far from Motorsport Scooters!




Sorry for the crappy resolution...hint...it's at the end of a President's avenue.

I know where that is WITHOUT the hints! You might all be seeing a day/night variation of that shot if I get the urge to head out a snap a photo!

Don't you guys dare think I've forgotten about this thread! Just got my scoot fixed and I'll be ready to go tomorrow! Expect a new location soon

Bah! I take that back. I can't figure out where this was taken. That looks like the Mission Valley area, over looking the I-8, and I think I see an off ramp from the freeway going to maybe the 163 or the 805 South. Looking south of that on the map I don't see a Presidents Ave though.
hmmm

No presidents, like Adams or Washington?

Oooh, "A" presidents street. Not Presidents Street. Duh.. I'll get it tomorrow morning.

Hurry before GeoEnvi snaps it! He said he know where it is even without a clue!

I could be wrong, but I suspect that Rex pulled a "bullshot" on his pic; editing the original to include the 'END' sign.

I waited and waited, but no one else took the bait. So, I snapped this one up on my way home from the "Bronx".

I'll update with a new pic tomorrow.


This ain't no Sea World lightshow.... West end of Adams Avenue overlooking former dairy farms (Mission Valley) @ Night.

GE,
It might have been easier for us to tell if the spot was the same if you had taken the pic during the day. But it looks close.

Take a pic of something that is a recognizable landmark. It's not fun if its not famous or infamous.

I knew I was going to catch hell for the crappy photo. My Sony Ericsson mobile phone is nice, but even camphones have their limits. Trust me, it's the same spot.

As for your other statement, I don't agree with you that it's not fun unless there's a landmark. That's like saying flashlight tag was only fun if you were caught hiding behind the neighbor's Porsche instead of in his tool shed...

I don't think photo quality is an issue. (My digital camera is a million years old and the resolution is poor, but it's good enough to get the idea across.)
If Rex is ok with the location of GeoEnvi's post, let's move on to the next location, ok?

That's the one! I'm cool with that. Geo, you would have gotten the "END" sign had you backed up your GT a few feet. It is there. And that is the correct location. Good job!

taps foot...waits for new picture....

EDIT: I had to edit this when I scrolled back up and saw that a certain RexGT200 has 400-something posts since June 2007! Blabbermouth!

HAHAHAH! Wait, you're talking about me?

Ok....where's the new photo???

^ Yea what he said!

YoooHooo
GeeeOooo
