WorldWide Scooter Tag

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Wed May 06, 2009 5:33 am

I looked back through the entire Tag thread, because I thought the mural thing had been done a pretty short time ago (so I was going to make a smartass, only I think it's funny comment). But by the time I got to the end, your tag wasn't a mural, it was a music venue.

"What the devil?" I thought, "I'm losing it."

Then I saw your Downtown Nashville post and saw the exact mural I remember seeing. But the thread had that unread icon in front of it. Creepy. Must be some weird effect from watching Fringe.

UnionZac · Post by **UnionZac** » Wed May 06, 2009 5:41 am

Yeah after posting, it occurred to me that "a mural" had most likely already been done. And it had, so I swapped it out, but I guess not before you noticed something was amiss.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Wed May 06, 2009 5:56 am

No biggie, and I had the pleasure of seeing all the Tag photos again, so thanks for that. But there was a few minutes there where I was thinking "WTF, I really need to get some more sleep." Ha!

I never have trouble seeing Photobucket pics but all I get are words. Tried to copy and paste but no good either. No problem, though, because you have "music Venue". Thanks!

Alright, I have had to drive the truck all week, schlepping stuff around for finals week at school (all my students projects & drawings to be graded), so I need to get off my butt and do this. Count on something soon.

Never could open the last picture. Are we still on Music Venue? Scooter in front of a music store, concert hall or record place, etc? I'm on my way...

UnionZac · Post by **UnionZac** » Mon May 18, 2009 2:21 pm

still on music venue...

We already did music store/record place. I took it more as concert hall type of thing - which I could get if I would just get around to it

!

UnionZac · Post by **UnionZac** » Fri May 22, 2009 4:49 am

i definitely meant music venue.

gr8dog · Post by **gr8dog** » Sun May 24, 2009 4:33 pm

I finally got the music venue. This is a park in the city where the city band performs once a week. It rotates and would be open when there is music.

The tag is any structure that is purely for decoration. Lets exclude fountains and statues from this.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Sun May 24, 2009 6:32 pm

Waaaaah! I *just* came in with a picture of the Marquee Theater.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Mon May 25, 2009 5:29 am

Ahh, I feel better now. Gr8dog just gave me another reason to go out for a ride.

And personally, I can't think of many things less functional than the entrance to Skysong. (It's a little hard to see, but the Fiddle is on the road under that white mass of, uhh, white.)

I can't wait until the monsoons, those huge funnels may prove entertaining during a hard rain!

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Mon May 25, 2009 5:37 am

And for a new tag, let's keep it in the function-free family and post your scoot with some public art. No fountains this time either please, but sculpture is (obviously) fine.

Bump. Can't have this falling off the first page.

gr8dog · Post by **gr8dog** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 5:29 pm

I'm having trouble finding a public sculpture I can get close enough to. I'm not giving up though, I will find one.

BoneGirl · Post by **BoneGirl** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 11:49 pm

I was looking for something different but stumbled on this tonight and thought it was awesome!

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 11:55 pm

And it goes well with pink!

BoneGirl · Post by **BoneGirl** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 12:17 am

I think anything that keeps the Tag going is good, and anything that's not on the list above is even better.

I tell ya, the Phoenix metro area is huge, and this thread and the Hunt have taught me more about the Valley of the Sum in two years than I learned in the previous twenty!

BAM! Scooter on a baseball field. (hopefully Stella people are welcome! )

Here are some other photos I took.

And here is the tag. Farm equipment / machines

Your pictures are fantastic!

Can we clarify the Tag is Farm Equipment or Farm Machinery. That way it's more specific to a particular Tag.

It should be easy for many people.

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 4:09 am

Does the farm equipment have to be in working condition? If not I can get one tomorrow.

Lagerghead went and got this Tag last night but hasn't posted it yet. Snooze, you lose!

New Tag: Horse Stable/Riding Stable/Horse Boarding

The Hoof Hotel (cute!)

etak · Post by **etak** » Sat Jun 27, 2009 9:48 pm

You can't really read it, but the sign next to the stable entrance says:
RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK. WE CARRY NO INSURANCE.
A true New York stable

.

They used to have another lot, across the street where the construction is happening. It had a small outdoor ring and another barn. But the landlord sold it out from under them.

We live within walking distance. When my daughter was about 12-13, she took lessons here and volunteered on weekends. Besides doing the dirty work, she got to give pony rides up and down the block (on the sidewalk!) and keep any tips she got.

etak · Post by **etak** » Sat Jun 27, 2009 10:02 pm

And the next tag . . .

Your scooter and barbed wire.
I took this a while ago (hence the bare trees), but I haven't gotten a tag for a long time, so I couldn't use it!

bluebuddygirl · Post by **bluebuddygirl** » Sun Jun 28, 2009 1:19 am

Crap, I had the stable pic, but couldn't get to the tag I wanted to use. You snooze you lose I guess. Barbed wire.... hmmm.

gr8dog · Post by **gr8dog** » Sun Jun 28, 2009 8:01 pm

Here is the barbed wire....

And the tag is.... Hay!
It can be stacked, bailed (square or round), or in a horses mouth, your choice.

etak · Post by **etak** » Mon Jun 29, 2009 1:04 am

There's hay in my stable pic, can I use it again?

gr8dog · Post by **gr8dog** » Mon Jun 29, 2009 4:03 pm

Did you take more than one picture. I think if it is the same location it should at least be a different photo. On the other hand, if you have a super tag photo....

etak · Post by **etak** » Mon Jun 29, 2009 11:11 pm

Nah, I'll leave this for someone else. I have an idea for a great tag, but I have to get there and take the pic.

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Thu Jul 02, 2009 5:30 am

Well, I rode over a hundred miles this morning from 5:30 before sunrise to 8:30am.
Went to the typical farmland spots to get my hay tag and alas, NO HAY ANYWHERE!!!
I guess it's not the right season for it since all the animals were eating fresh grass instead.
Figured I'd go ahead and post my photos even if they don't include hay, just for fun.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Thu Jul 02, 2009 6:14 am

Nice shorty bus. Chop and channel that sucker and you got yourself an Xb that lies alot!

OScoot! · Post by **OScoot!** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 6:47 pm

OK....finally found a single bale of hay!

And since it's the 4th of July....go find a fireworks stand....quickly!

OK sorry .... didn't think about all the states that have banned fireworks....and since it's now after the 4th, and most fireworks stands have disappeared, I'll replace the tag with this one......

How about a place to eat with outside "dining".

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Mon Jul 06, 2009 3:27 am

Nice one OScoot! (But there's no chance in AZ.)

I especially like the tepee/lighthouse/faded glory thingy over the entrance.

UnionZac · Post by **UnionZac** » Wed Jul 08, 2009 1:58 pm

Eastland Cafe in East Nashville. If you have the opportunity, its definitely worth it.

<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ ... C00414.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/ ... C00414.jpg" border="0" alt="scooter,Genuine Buddy,Eastland Cafe,East Nashville"></a>

and for the new hunt... favourite local coffee shop. This one is called Portland Brew. The picture quality is pretty rough because I had to shoot into the sun. You can see Sgt Pepper upfront, but someone else was rocking a really cool Orange and Cream buddy w/cowel protectors and white walls. Very classy.

Ashland Coffee & Tea

And the tag.....your scooter at a railroad crossing with a train going by!

rvajma · Post by **rvajma** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 11:41 pm

You did not have to go far or wait for very long for that shot! AC&T is the only coffee shop I know of located right at a train crossing. I ride my Buddy up to AC&T and The Caboose every Wednesday. Hope to see you up there one of these days.

You're absolutely right. As I was leaving AC&T, I had to stop and wait for the train, so I thought.....why not? That would make a good tag.
Yeah....I'm still wondering about you scooting and drinking wine!!!!!

I'll have to make an evening run up to the Caboose one Wed. to say HI.

An industrial setting in which you would NOT normally find a motor scooter.
