OK, any plane lying on the ground (instead of its landing gear)......

Diblit · Post by **Diblit** » Sat Jun 30, 2012 11:12 pm

okay....i hope this one counts....this plane is actually inoperable....has some flat tires.

We've had a lot of uniquely difficult Tags posted lately! How about some Tags that aren't so difficult, so we can keep this going?

Diblit · Post by **Diblit** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 7:01 pm

so....how about anyone in uniform.....doesn't have to be a cop.

I'm attempting to get a cop!

Diblit · Post by **Diblit** » Thu Jul 12, 2012 8:41 pm

so sorry for posting a tough one. how about a pic with your scoot next to a police car, firetruck, or ambulance? (or any vehicle that someone in uniform drives.)

Too easy.... I'll sit that one out.

Hey BootScootin', how about taking a self portrait and put this tag out of it's misery?

Agreed.

Or somebody chase down a UPS man or something. A "uniform" can be pretty much anything I say.

Yeah I think we should.
I tried asking a Border Patrol agent to sit on my bike but he wasn't very amused with the idea

Anyone?

PeteH · Post by **PeteH** » Thu Jul 26, 2012 6:46 pm

I work right by the Mighty Mississippi and any number of great old bridges, but it's been so dadgum hot here I haven't ridden to work in a week or so. Hopefully we catch a break tonight and I can ride 'n' shoot tomorrow.

It's not from Madison County but I think it's looks pretty neat.

Dage'sVew · Post by **Dage'sVew** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 1:21 pm

How about for the next tag; your scoot with an oversize object used to advertise something.This one is for a stretch of the historic Lincoln Highway where it passes through Pennsylvania.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Tue Jul 31, 2012 5:53 pm

Yippee! A new tag!

ScootLemont · Post by **ScootLemont** » Wed Aug 01, 2012 7:17 pm

Great idea - I LOVE over sized vintage advertising & frequently go out of my way to hit them on the road.

Here is a great website to help people find them

Here's a classic Midwest icon:

And up next, here's one that _might_ seem tricky, but not too terrible: to celebrate the upcoming 50th Anniversary tour, shoot your scoot at ...

A venue where the Rolling Stones have played!

This is the Edward Jones (formerly TWA) Dome. Big Old Hint: See http://www.timeisonourside.com/amer.html for the full North American concert log. Good Luck and enjoy!

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 12:01 am

I can't believe the Stones didn't play PHX in '72 in support of the best Stones album ever. Somebody must have pissed Mick off - or told Keith there weren't any drugs in Phoenix!

PeteH · Post by **PeteH** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 1:54 am

I saw them here at this very venue on 12/12/1997, on what was ostensibly their [first] farewell tour. It was a very well-done show, as it was being simulcast on Westwood One plus on pay-per-view.

I have a recording of it, and it's a hoot to hear about 50,000 peeps yelling "YO! YO!" during Start Me Up.

I figured that this would be a fun twist on the Tag, but not too hard as they've played in so many places.

A philisophical question for you: What does good mean?

JohnKiniston · Post by **JohnKiniston** » Tue Aug 14, 2012 5:59 pm

Hmm, Should I do a different tag?

I guess to me a 'Good' sign is a amusing sign.

rfman81 · Post by **rfman81** » Sun Aug 26, 2012 10:01 pm

Took me awhile to find a sign that I thought was worthy. I saw this and thought, what the heck, what is in????

rfman81 · Post by **rfman81** » Sun Aug 26, 2012 10:06 pm

If my last one passes.... Then the next is a shot next to a coca cola bottling plant.

Thanks! I was about to post something else.

Come on folks lets keep this alive.

BootScootin'FireFighter · Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:22 pm

Coca-Cola bottling center, Alexandria, VA

Next up, your scooter at your local State Police office, barracks, substation, or wherever they meet for role-call and shift change.

Virginia State Police, Division 7 Headquarters... Fairfax, VA

Not the best pic, but the hoi polloi are not allowed in the lot. This is taken from the lot next door.

In honor of the installation of a card access gate on campus (can't wait to try to activate this thing in January with my winter gloves)...I bring you...

your scoot at a card access gate

note the sweet parking spot just ahead to the left of the silver car...they left that for me!

rfman81 · Post by **rfman81** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 2:32 am

siobhan, Glad to see your buddy is ok after your theft.

Hey thanks, rfman! Still no word on my darling Elsa (the DRZ). The only 'damage' to the Buddy was a broken panel clip where they tried to pry it off to get to the ignition, and a messed up cowl on the left side in the back, where they probably picked the bike up from. The ignition itself was jammed but the boyfriend managed to get it working. I just sooo want to get my hands on those little bahstahds.

JohnKiniston · Post by **JohnKiniston** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 3:30 pm

Sorry to hear about your bike being stolen. Glad you got one of them back atleast.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Fri Aug 31, 2012 6:20 pm

Oh, bummer, siobhan. Were both bikes outside? That really sucks.

Syd wrote:Oh, bummer, siobhan. Were both bikes outside? That really sucks.

Nope. Locked garage with cars in the driveway. Our entire street was hit. Neighbors' car windows smashed both on my street and the next. They just went through and took anything they wanted, even though most of us know not to keep iPods/GPS in cars. We've added even more security to the garage now, and I'm hoping for a call that the bike was found, preferably with a seriously injured rider. Yes, I'm no Christian. I'm still furious as it's taken 3 years to get that bike perfect.

Ok, back to the tag

Really? This is still sitting here? I know someone must have to swipe to get into a parking structure or even get out of one's gated community. Surely!

I rode all over our town this morning and couldn't find a single access gate. Only railroad crossings.

PeteH · Post by **PeteH** » Tue Sep 11, 2012 3:53 pm

Sigh - since the new school year started, I've been driving my urchin in the morning. Haven't scooted to my gate-guarded office in a couple of weeks.

Must convince wife to drive the kid and let me have a scooter day......

rfman81 · Post by **rfman81** » Tue Sep 11, 2012 5:53 pm

I have one at work, I have just been lazy to go around to the other parking lot to go take a picture. Will try today.

SuperFlyBuddy · Post by **SuperFlyBuddy** » Thu Sep 20, 2012 2:17 am

After riding my bicycle to work for the last few weeks I was back on the scoot this week.

Technically this isn't a key card access gate, but a key pad. This tag has been going on long enough so this will have to do.

SuperFlyBuddy · Post by **SuperFlyBuddy** » Thu Sep 20, 2012 2:18 am

PeteH · Post by **PeteH** » Thu Sep 20, 2012 8:12 pm

Glad the elusive gate finally got snapped. I actually got to ride to work yesterday, but since my last note, my college son's cellphone fritzed, he's got mine, and I'm using a burner phone with no camera, wouldn't ya know?
