As a former resident, I'd love to see some of my old haunts tagged up. There's a Vespa dealer there, so where are all the Vespiti??? Bring It!!!

This is embarrassing - no pictures yet. So, the wife and I did some puttering around and took this picture to get this going:

I'd be all over that if I was there...well, maybe in six years or so. Might retire in FW, especially if the scooter tag gets going. Laughing emoticon

How about "Riders Who Used to or Plan to Live in FW/Tarrant Co. Scooter Tag"?

From what I hear, many of my pics wouldn't even work as Photoshops as every place I frequented in the area is closed, torn down, or renovated.

We have a lot of FW area members on ModernBuddy. I posted a link there and no one responded. I know there's a DFW scooterist forum. Maybe someone should post there.

Funny how many of us can't actually play but want to see it being played.

I've figured it out...you can get it on Google Maps -- streetview. Think about where there are other brick roads in Fort Worth. It stumped me at first, too.

A hint - this used to be a restaurant. It is in north Fort Worth in the general vicinity of Joe T Garcia's restaurant...

The bricks are a good clue...

It used to be an Old Spagetti Warehouse.
It's on a hill with railroad tracks nearby...

The frogs are at the Botanical Gardens and are a series who appear to be hopping through the fountains. Very cute!

But we couldn't stand it after seeing your lament.

Fort Worth Scooter Tag!
I am sorry YardSale but that is not the tag spot. (Pretty scooter though!) You are supposed to find the last posted picture and get a picture of your bike at that spot. Then you can post a new tag spot. Glad to see you playing. Good Luck and be safe!

Well, it's spring, and time for more Fort Worth scooter tag!

And now, for the new photo. Those of you who no longer live in Fort Worth probably have seen neither the new skyscraper in the background, nor the metal sculpture immediately behind the Vespa!
