Lateralus Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Don't know how this normally works, but anyone in the East Midlands fancy meeting up one (dry) Sat or Sun in late Jan to tick off a few from the list? Haven't even got a bike yet, but am already keen to find reasons for going out, and would be nice to meet some of you lot too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttled Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Some good runs to do with Throttled Jnr and this year I want to go somewhere where I have not been, camp and do that region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priest Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Thanks for the great work GOG i guess the red lion does not count as the lion pub as there are lots of them, does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttled Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I am going to do all of the pubs this year, that will take me on some bigger trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGD217 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 As priest said, how strict are we on 'the lion'? I've only seen the pubs on my phone so far and sodding iPhone won't load the google map but I'm looking forward to this year. Massive thanks to all that were involved with this, it's something I really enjoy doing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull it in when you get 'tagging' further afield - There are two I've located in Cambridgeshire, 1 in Sussex and 3 in London! There will be many more around no doubt!

Grumpy Old Git Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 I've amended the link to the map (now a shared map) which may load better?I've moved the Fovant Badges tag (Thanks Ian) closer to where the sing is located (in a Layby on the A30 near Fovant) - Should be easier to find now.As to the Lion - Sorry but as there are lots of 'Lion' pubs, we will not accept 'Red Lion'; 'White Lion' or any other coloured Lion including 'Pink'. Again, a simple search on the interweb lists quite a few (albeit mainly in Southern England). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Map doesn't load on the I pad either, but fine on Windows then save to my google maps then it opens fine on google maps on the I pad. I believe this is an issue between Apple (spit) and Google! Probably some sort of competition I will import the tags on to the members map if that helps?

Westbeef Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I don't suppose anyone has a spreadsheet with all the places listed? I'll create myself one and share it if not, just going to keep a checklist for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
