Modern Vespa

I say if its not changed by Sunday, open tag!!

I'm with you CJ! I asked for a new tag over a month ago.

I almost had it but the train moved on before I could get a pic.

New tag..
With a scenic painter/photographer.

With a scenic photographer

good one Hachi.

Tag: Shelter Island, San diego...



New Tag: Your scooter outside a coffee shop

Good job DirtyRAT! Nice photo!

Thanks, Hachi! I'm surprised that Shipping Container tag sat for so long!

Even the smallest towns seem to have a coffee shop, but extra bragging rights will go to the tagger who snaps a photo in front of a micro-roaster shop.

Seems micro brewing of beer and micro-roasters of coffee are all the rage on the west coast now.

DirtyRAT, we don't have any micro roasters around here. I tried to find some regular coffee shops but eventually just went to the national franchise coffee shop

DirtyRat knows where there's a fugly water tower to tag!

I do, but didn't you tag the same tower, mmehren? Now's your chance to get the Fugly cloud tower off your camera!

work keeps me outta the game, so here's the tower tag, the next tag (a stone church) AND a bonus coffee roaster cause I can...


but the next tag is the church

Less than two hours. That's pretty good mmehren!

the next time I tag, it'll probably be three months between me getting one and posting the next it'll average out

there ya go...

...now you're rid of that Tower pic, Mmehren!....on to find a stone church, with some Bird Rock coffee roaster espresso in me gullet

mostly made of stone: All Hallow's catholic Church, Mount Soledad , La Jolla

Summer is here, so here's a seasonal tag: Lifeguard Tower and your scooter

Tall Lifeguard chairs count (example: those wooden Lifeguard chairs that are 6+ feet tall, rather than a lawn chair with a lifeguard sitting in it) . With the amount of Lakes, beaches, rivers, and pools, this shouldn't go untagged for long

I just found this very helpful, but 5 year old post. Any chance we could update it and bump it to the first page of this thread? Moderator help is likely needed, if we agree this is a good idea.

This would surely help newcomers avoid repeat tagging.

...Just a thought.

Wow, that's a long list.

Wow! thanks for the Herculean effort to update the list! Much appreciated, and I see some quite creative entries there, too

It's a good thing, too: I had 15 or more tag ideas that I see were already done!

We have a similar phenomenon in the San Diego scooter tag thread: 7+ years of tags, and new players cycling through the game don't want to read 80 pages to see what's been done.

Now, who'll grab my Lifeguard tower/tall chair tag?

Not a problem...I keep a running file so I updated what was missing and a quick copy/paste it's done.

There are quite a few repeats, but they keep the game going and people out riding!

I enjoy these "tags" to see similar tags. This morning I was in Joshua Tree National Park and saw a photographer sitting on a rock waiting the sun peek up.



I'll go look for a lifeguard Tuesday....

Lifeguard chair...

Next tag?

Patience Hachi. I'm working on it. I went to one place, but apparently it only lights up at night.

Your scooter with an Airstream:

Well I went to start my scooter so I could go get the tag and now the starter button is on the blink

/me kick-starts his Stella 2-stroke to look for Airstreams

Electricity be damned!

nice tag, ScooterGirl.

Question: Airstream also made Motorhomes, not just trailers.

Do those count?

Sure...an Airstream is good.

Tag: 1974 Airstream Argosy

New tag: your scooter in Bicycle-Only parking

(I got a few 'WTF!?" looks from pedestrians...heheh)

Montgomery is not set up too well for bicycle parking so I took a picture at a local school. Anyone remember these old bicycle racks?

Glad to see you have the scooter running again, Hachi!

Thanks ScooterGirlinAL! It started this morning so I went for a ride and didn't cut it off. I am having intermittent starting problems. I think it is either the starter button or brake switch. I have one of each ordered. I installed a new ignition switch the other day but that wasn't the problem.

Tag. Found this near a lunchtime scoot to Vespa Motorsport, @ san diego airport.

New tag: your scooter and a Neighborhood entrance sign

The first time I actually tried to do this and you beat me to it. And a effing stella to boot. Here is what I took. OK looking for a neighborhood sign.

Good try Stickyfrog! Welcome to my world
