[mention]Hoggs[/mention] The Riverside bar & Eatery by Hereford is inside a barrier controlled caravan park & they won’t let me onto the park so a photo of the caravan park entrance will have to do 👍


Plus.....Kilvert Museum no longer exists, its now a private house, so a photo of the building is all we can do :thumb:

Hopley's Cafe is a bit difficult to find. I rode past it twice before I spotted the small sign (only visible when going north) - And it was closed!

The entrance is opposite a rather large gated building called 'The Hall' which will be on your left as you go south through the village.

Parking is also not easy (for a heavy bike) - decided to park on the main road and walk back to the sign for the photo.


Currently too hot to ride far so, next tags at the weekend.

Hi @onesea will have to try to get over there, are you over there on Tuesday's at the moment.

I dont get there as much as I used to it depends on my shift pattern, they carry on meeting all year. Plus when I get the chance to be out I am tend to ride further than a handful of miles down the road. If you PM Me your going I will try and get there, although if I recall you know a couple of the regulars.

Not even certain I have tagged it this year!

@Hoggs just wondering I know I have not scored for a whilst but I notice I have dropped off the score board?

Hoping it's mistake...

 

Hello! I've been held hostage in Six30s basement. But I've now escaped and will do an update tomorrow :mrgreen:

No rush I have not got a tag for months...


As long as the release fee was not him being a moderator and trust after you resolved the situation Six30 is now in a place of his nightmares.

Although the places of Six30's nightmares is beyond my comprehension :shock:

woah there! the 50 point bonus IS applied to east and west Midlands and also North and South Wales.


If it's a different colour on the map it's a different region.

So [mention]mike_smith[/mention] sounds like your scoring was correct.... unless you haven't got Gaydon museum in which case -50


I will try and check at some point, but things have been a bit crazy
