Officious PDX Area photo tag thread

[FZ6Rider]

Sure, I hope someone get this tomorrow.
We were very close to it today but I didnt want to give more clues to out group to keep it fair.


Clue 1: On the coast.
Clue 2: Between Tillamook and Hwy 53.

Now this is way too easy.

Sorry Lee, I tough you would guess this location. You were so close but I didnt want to just give it away.
If we were passing this location i'm sure you would pull over for the pic

We just did not go far enough; next time.

I guess people dont care about photo tag any more.
Some people rode by this place on Sunday and others were with in couple miles of this tag

[yellowpens]

i know. it was a total "hey.. thats the photo tag spot.." "oh.. there it goes.." moment for me. i tend to think that way on the bike. ill go get it in the AM tomorrow if nobody gets it today.

[yellowpens]

Here it is:

On Hwy 101, about 10 miles out of tillamook.
It was a good ride out.. except for the construction spots on hwy 6, hwy 101, and hwy 53, that had traffic going one way and held you up, then got you stuck behind a big line of cars until you reached a passing zone. Other then that, it was nice.

[yellowpens]

heres the new one:

Hint: Its near some "Dangerous Curves".

[xbswede]

Dangerous Curves my ass. People should just not drive drunk out there and it would probably solve the dangereous curve issue.

Someone needs to tag this in a hurry otherwise I am grabbing it on my way home tonight.

[BoricuaBusa]

I know where this one at.... we pass thru there twice this week.....lollll

ha i know. im not the one that designated them that way.

[xbswede]

Really crappy camera phone pics but i didn't have my camera with me today.

Scholls Ferry Rd Road




new tag coming tonight.

[xbswede]

OK new Tag. Its a couple of weeks old and I was riding the yellow Loaner Buell while I had some warranty work done.





A couple clues
1. 47
2. nice 8 mile loop

[xbswede]

Anyone need anotehr hint or is this game dying?

[drivingon9]

Not too hard, and your clues are definitely reasonable (and maybe too much).

I think that the weather has kept most off their bike in the last couple of days. I may try to head out there this pm.

[uuu]

Here you go - Hagg Lake
Let me know if these work and I'll post up the next one.

[BoricuaBusa]

Good Job UUU... post the next one....

[xbswede]

Your Good UUU. Get the next one going.

[uuu]

Thansk guys. And Here you go - next one. Most of you have probably passed this at one time or another.
Should be super familiar to you west side standing ride riders.

I have always wondered why a rusty piece of agricultural machinery would look appealing enough to anyone to use it to mark your entry.

For me, it would be nostalgia. My mother's aunt and uncle had a farm, and that farm had an old, rusty horse-drawn plow. After they died, the farm eventually moved out of the family's hands. That plow reminds me of spending the 4th of July and other holidays at their house with my cousins.

But, that's me.

Where I grew up...it was really common. Not necessarily for nostalgic reasons, but primarily because you most likely had used equipment that was passed down generation to generation. After a while, it breaks down and you HAVE to buy a new one. It ends up being pretty expensive to try and have large equipment like that hauled off, AND- most people had driveways that were between 1/4-1 Mile Long...It made it easier to give directions to someone when everything else around you all looks the same.

I'm sure people do it for other reasons too...but that's just from what I know..

This game is amazing to me since the only thing I pay attention to on a ride are the turns. Where some look at the scenary, the only thing going inside my helmet is, "look through the turn, look through the turn, look through the turn..."

^^^Yep. If you could download the mental images in my head from Skyline, you'd see detailed corner pavement and blurs for the straights with side roads in freeze frames. Must be why I get lost all the time. Street signs never register until I'm lost.

I can tell you where almost every pot hole, ripple in the road, off camber turn is, on the Wednesday night ride, but I could not tell you where that rusted plow is. And I have been riding those routes religiously for couple of years now.

And I know both of you have been past it as I have ridden with you at least a couple of times right by that spot.

[dcamgixxer]

maybe another clue as to where this is close to? i have ridden that route many of times and have no clue either.

[ninjarider]

I think I know where this is. anyone want to get it before the rides tonight?

[BoricuaBusa]

Both rides today will pass thru there..... I'm getting it...

[ninjarider]

3 days is way too long for new picture. It should be 24hrs and no more.
