What....
What city is that? It can't be Sacramento as there are shadows, which would indicate sun? Dunno?

Man that fog was thick this morning. It condensed all over my visor on the way in to work today. I need a mini squeegee for it
If I were a thinking man, I'd have my camera with me and get this dang tag. If I weren't a wuss, I'd be a thinking man |

"the new" ... this concept is lost on me. "x is the new y"
I'm waiting for "Stupid is the new smart." - i think that it has already happened but they aren't able to form that sentence. We better be careful callin' pink black and white red .. they're gonna have a hard time knowing their colors if it keeps up! I'm with SIC. Black is the old Black. |

There seems to be a good many scooter enthusiasts here in the Sacramento area. Is there, or are there, any clubs or organizations?
I live in Rancho Cordova, but I never seem to see any other scooter riders in the area. I have a Vespa 200 GT and have been riding it about a thousand miles per month and hardly ever see another scooter. |

If you tag it, post another tag ASAP.
Ok, I'm gonna cry FOUL again. This tag was taken Friday, It has been 4 days and no post. 1 or 2 days, well ok, but 4 days. This is Hostage Tag, either play or don't, holding the tag ain't cutting it, I know life gets in the way. Post or give it up if you can't.

He really pushes, don't he?
Officially, the next tag should happen within 48 hours of claiming a tag. Do we need a Crappy Weather Clause? I'm interested in seeing just how many of us are out there tagging when the weather really gets crummy. Cold I can deal with and I'm starting to force myself to learn to ride in the wet. I'd hate to be the only one out there riding in the rain playing tag ... lol chrisives242 wrote: Okay, so here are the official rules for the Sacramento area scooter tag... The area available is as follows: 10 mile radius on the map, + 15 miles between 50 and 80 Time a tag sits before giving hints/help - 3 days, then every two days after that Time between tagging and posting the next tag - 48 hours Time before tag expires - 8 days (this allows for three hints) If the tag expires OR a new tag isn't posted withing 48 hours, the tag is first come, first serve... How's that?? |

Ok, does ChrisIves even post anymore?
The Crappy Weather Clause sounds good to me. Not to worry, I'm on this one! |

I haven't seen a post from him in awhile. I grabbed those guidelines from page 6 when we had a dispute about timing before. It looks like those are the rules we've been running with and agree to. He just consolidated things nicely after a couple days of discussion.
If you have one, great! I'm still riding and will try to get the ones I can find Crappy weather - what say we double our timeframes in the above stated rules during the rainy months? |

i know RIGHT were that is. If i'd used my brains, i would have the camera with me. I could have tagged it on the way home, even. *sigh*
Maybe I'll remember my camera in the morning. Cold and wet ... yet i still have a smile on my face while i'm riding (you can't see it through all the shit in front of my face, but i'm grinnin!) |

I don't blame ya for short riding it. I do about 10mins between work and that's pretty close to my max if i'm prone to shivering at whatever time of day it is. |

...and a little dry weather, I got it. But it is in my 'hood too. I have a client next door. We must be close? How about a drink at the Hilltop and then you can show me the rest of "the" tattoo?

Cool- I've seen Rhonda at Chargin's a time or two! The Top is walking distance to my house... might not be a bad idea!
Have two more tattoos! And the one you're thinking about is all done! Are you going on the ride tomorrow night? |

My Vote...
I say we continue using the same rules as above with the change being ;
Time between tagging and posting new tag 96 hours Tag expires in 10 days Not everyone rides in this cold weather or rain. Not to mention the lack of daylight on weekdays. This gives a little more time without stretching it out too long. IF A BAD STORM rolls through lasting for days then I say a delay is in order. What do you think? P.S. I DO ride in this cold/foggy/ light rain weather for a tag!!!!! So keep'em coming! 8) |

What ride?
I have heard about it the ride in passing but I have no details. Let me know?
But I am a cold, wet weather puss, so it will have to be at least decent for me to go. Might hafta' stop at Socal's for a "warm me up" on the way. Walk to the top? Hell, I've crawled home from there....lol. |
