    Settled for the night tag just in case I don't get out in the AM.
    Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos
    Last tag was the pedestrian tunnel under the Old Town Transit Center.

    I was hoping to get out and take a picture during daylight hours for a clue without the blueish lights for a different aspect but sadly I didn't make it and now I'm off my bike for probably 5-7 weeks. So lets try this for a clue. Originally built in 1913 it was recently remodeled with the new addition and is now open to the public as part of a larger public use area in the general vicinity.

    The Last tag was on the pedestrian bridge looking at petco park and the new downtown library.

    Bonus: I will buy a couple of drinks for the person who tags this one with thier bike in the exact spot Han's bike is. :face-devil-grin:

    I know where it is but I don't think I'll be in the area this weekend.

    I wouldn't suggest dunking your bike in the fountain in broad daylight.

    A little later than I had planned:

    Next one. For the potential benefit of the 30 or so members of the SDBikeCommuter Strava Club, my Strava track may or may not provide any hints as to the location of the tag.
    :face-monkey:



    Last one was in La Jolla west of UCSD.

    Really interesting to see the difference in the sky between 10:30 AM and 4:30 PM. Also, to add a little more detail on the location--this is on Black Gold Road, on the way down to Black's Beach.

    I learned something today. I have never been along that road and it looks like a quiet one. Another place to discover. Thanks.

    Park up above on Black Gold Rd. and carry your gear down to the beach. This is one of the easiest ways to get down to Black's.

    Not on my Strava but you should be able to figure it out.



    Last tag was the historical marker at the Gliderport.

    Note the pose. Plus, someone was "walking" their 6 chickens when we arrived. I tried to get them in the photo but they were, well, chicken to have their photo taken

    Cue the sentimental music. Last tag was the municipal golf course, 28th between A and Ash.

    That is sad for us. Great for Sky and Velo Cult that they have been so enthusiastically received in Portland.

    At least there is a bicycle in the window display!

    Last tag was 2220 Fern St. in South Park, but that may not need to be said to most members here.

    Here is my preferred tag:



    However, this is a bit off the beaten path and may be too difficult (there was one in a more noticeable location but it has been removed) So I present an easy alternative if the above is too elusive:

    That's an understatement. I've read that before the City starting taking them down, there were 100 such flowers. But Plan B looks much more doable...

    All right Shapps: we need a clue. Its been out there WAY too long.

    There is an easy 2nd tag up there for anyone to grab.

    For a clue on the first (which I thought might be too hard) it is in a neighborhood with streets all named after Native American Tribes. You'll either have a steep climb up to it, or a nice drop down after.

    In any event, the other tag should be nice and easy, I don't think a clue is needed for that one.

    Apparently, there were a lot of complaints. Though why someone would complain about that is beyond me. I thought they were great.

    My guess is that it is not that people do not know where it is so much as it in a place not many people are ridding. At least for me that's the case.
