North Georgia TAG ride

This North Georgia tag ride is on going. Here is the plan.

1) You will look at the clues for the last location posted. You must travel to that location, then travel to a new location. Get photos (OR A GOOD DESCRIPTION) of the old and new locations with your bike.

2) Come here and post info on the last location, proving you found it. You then post the info on the NEW location (You must use a good description. This is for interesting rides, not a contest. )

3) Go to the bottom of this page and click the SUBSCRIBE button. You will get an email when there is activity on this thread and you will then know that a new tag location may be up.

Rules:
Stay within 100 miles of Atlanta so more people have time to try to do it. You can go farther IF you have arranged for someone to find it and bring it back to the area. I will 'void' anything that is going to stall the game out.

Make the new location fun to find, but not overly difficult. As noted, I will 'void' anything that stalls out the game.

Avoid gravel/dirt roads and avoid high traffic (stay outside the perimeter). Avoid places that you need to pay just to get a photo (Stone mountain, Amicalola falls, etc).

Photos are preferred so nobody questions that you really were on a motorcycle. Even a cell phone photo is fine. Not having a camera is NOT an excuse. Just give a better description of the 'from' location and a good description of the 'to' location that proves you found the spots.

Keep it interesting, but don't make it TOO difficult, to find the new spot.

If you go to a site, find it and get a photo, then go to a new site and get a photo, then come home to find that someone has already moved the cache site, too bad. So be quick.

A photo of a Guzzi with an interesting view is a plus, but any motorcycle/scooter is allowed. Group rides are good.

Try not to repeat locations. See the attached Google map for where we have been.

NOTES:
You WILL need to sign up on the Google maps site to edit it. I will try to keep it current, but I don't promise it.
 
When we left off, long long ago, Russ had moved the tag to a mill. I found it here, in Juliette Georgia. The mill is now the home of a motorcycle museum (with limited hours). Right beside the Whistlestop Cafe, home of the fried green tomatoes. I don't like green tomatoes, but they make a good cheeseburger...



I forgot to include the bike in the shot. This should be easy to find.

Ooh Ooh ... I know where it is! Unfortunately, I know where I is, too. Milan. Illinois. Shix. :S

Wish I could play.

Will be back for Thanksgiving, but company will keep me tethered to house. Hope to play sometime on one of my visits in the spring.

Y'all have fun.

Took a ride today. Among the places I passed was Booger Hollow Citgo Store. See pic. Took a long ride, see second pic and find it.

Yea Gary, seems like I saw you today, I didn't find it but did get the hint, ended up on alot of roads, had fun out riding on my day off. Thanks Wayne.
 
I'll never get that one figured out without more hints.
Looks like you have some serious storage on that bike. :shock:
 
First clue:

On a state road in NGA, as you pass by it is in your face and I doubt you will ever pass at more than 20 mph.
 
Second Clue:

I spent 5 1/2 hours on my round trip between Roswell and Booger Hollow yesterday. My circuitous route took me by this historic building constructed in 1916.
 
Third Clue: A little more of the pic might help. BTW Bill Hagan got the location.

Fourth Clue:

From this place, a famous Georgia product has been shipped to the nation's capital and many other US and International destinations.
 
Look at the bright side, Yaniv; you don't have to go here -- as I did today in Minnesota -- to find it.

I've decided that the Norge is pretty darn good on gravel and dirt ... but I don't like it as well as it does.
