      I can try Sunday. It's too dark when I get off work. I'll have to think of a new tag though. That's the toughest part. After playing the game for 7 years, it's hard to come up with something I haven't used already.

        Night tags can be fun too.

            A majority of my tags have been after dark.... Generally the only time I can "schedule" quiet time to myself. That magical time when I'm the only one in the house awake. Even that's becoming difficult with a 12 and 15 year old though.

                Found another mile marker, LOL! Lots of highways start at the main interstates like I-25 and I-40. Somebody is bound to come a crossed one somewhere.

                  I'm in the middle of them. Maybe I'll pay a toll and get this.

                    Around here mile markers are based on state line (or one of the great lakes).

                    I was thinking that some companys put in a new road, typically a circular road, name the road after the company name or company founder, and build thier main office and give it street address 1. I know of a couple of those, but aint getting bike out any time soon. But maybe that is a hint for someone.

                      I did get to ride a customers Busa, but it was nowhere near any roads with mile markers, let alone numero uno.

                        It was 68F today in NH so I the thought getting this tag would be a fun reason to get out for a ride. The major route I crossed was up at mile marker 43 and I really didn't want to ride down through cities to get to mile marker 1. And it was too early to get a nice sunset and bike picture...so I came back with only a "dirty" pic of my taillights with all the snow melt off, sand and mud. Still nice to be out riding and not freezing in February! Lots of frost heaves and sand to watch out for. Of course now I may have to wash the bike down!

                          Rode the half hour or so to get out the urban area, for my first ride of this visit.
                          Took the first interesting looking road, and there was a mile marker. Apparently around here (San Diego county) each road starts mile markers starting at 1. Was a marker every 1/2 mile.

                          Oh, now to see what pics I have of todays ride for the next tag.





                          Any set of curves.... with bike featured prominent in the foreground (doesn't have to be looking thru wheel).

                          And I do mean set of curves, not one curve, and visible in the photo. So, you may know of a set of curves, but you are searching for a set of curves that are visible from one perspective... and have a place for the bike in foreground. (Welcome to my weirdness.)

                              some would say "wobble" (especially on this bike).

                                I can get this, we don't have whole lot of fun curves, but there is a nice run about a half an hour from me. Hopefully my east coast position gives me time to get it posted before someone else does.
