This is great that we have some "new blood" in the game it makes the tags even more interesting. It's going pretty good now (pace of game) I don't think it should be a big deal to ask everyone to post the tag and the new tag at the same time. When you are going out to get a tag just have a new tag in mind to get while you are getting the original tag. Pretty easy really. I say this because I think it would be unfair to a guy that goes out and gets both tags (old and new) only to come home and see someone got the tag but has not yet posted a new tag.
Again I'm glad to see more guys playing.:)
Trevor
ps I don't mind tags like the oil well that are impossible to get for some guys because we have more guys playing now and I like to see pics of stuff I might not see in my part of the country and it allows me to show some things unique to my part of the country too. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm cool with the tag, I agree with your reasoning, but if know one get it in the 48hrs., it needs to be changed to a new tag.
 
The "new blood" has always been here but due to winter and us having our bikes tore down (like me) can't always get out. I hope to have mine up soon, maybe this weekend before I leave, and if so I'll try to get one from here.

Sadly though, even if the bike was running, there aren't any oil wells close by to get one.

Hey Cowboy, sorry for the new blood comment it does sound a bit condescending, although I certainly did not mean it that way. Afterall I'm the one that is new here, so again sorry about that.:)
 
I am still trying for the life of me to figure out just what our southern members in Texas and California do with their bikes.
Why don't some of them partake in this game? :confused:
Nessism, Russr33, Jwhelen, etc, etc.
Just don't want to participate or do the bikes not get ridden? :confused:
We would LOVE to see those fine examples out on the roads. (Hint)

I do think they would be able to get this tag easy enough. Shame, there are oil rigs every where in those parts of the country. Why its a vertual tag made to order. Dirt and cacti might be easier, but not by much.
 
I guess there are some oil wells closer to me, up in the Duluth/Superior region, but it's still an 8 hour round trip. Not a chance this week!
 
If someone can get this tag please say so and we will wait but otherwise it might be time to move on? Come on you Texas boys! Or where are my fellow Canadians from Alberta?:(
 
oil well ey? not too many round these parts. i could probably find some oil pipeline? but at the same time im pretty busted up and im def not getting on my bike today :P
 
Time to get creative ? He said oil well, pump etc. An oil pump at a service station ? A model on the seat ? A picture of your bike in front of your car, with the hood open ? Pretty sure there's one in there somewhere. How about a pile of oil cans ? He did say etc.:)

:(Why you busted up. I hope you didn't spend all that paypal money on stitches or something.:rolleyes:
 
Well, a bit of an obscure tag I see. To be techinically accurate this is an Oil and Gas Well. Maybe to help this tag along I could suggest the tag be: Any oil or gas/natural gas/ petroleum type source that is routed or stored in any tank, pump station, pipes, storage depot etc... that is in a natural or semi remote setting....ie in an oil field, down a service road that leads to said tag....or in a corn field on a country road..... Anything except right next to a gas staion or factory or built up commercial area.
Something like that?....anyone agree with the slight modification or the tag? There is something like that out there.

Sounds good to me. Calling for rain here so I might have a tough time getting out. Good luck guys.:)
 
Would a Tank Farm suffice?

If it does, it still doesn't count as I will wait until a Suzuki gets the next tag. Preferably a GS model but any Suzuki would work for me. ;)

I think the tag is satisfied. Unless anyone objects, I say you have succeeded. Ps, if you can take that head gasket off your 1100et and bring it over I could get mine going. Stator too thanks:D
 
Here it is the source of natural gas around these parts.

If nobody believes me than I guess have to lite up in a half hour. Is the tag met?
