Isn't it just misguided, possibly meant to be funny, spam rather than cheating? Made me laugh anyway. Unlike those wretched cryptic clues. You know, given that there is no new tag and no location, except a false one, for the old tag?

Yes it is funny.

The bike is photoshopped in!
If it's so sunny then where is the bikes shadow? -

Potatochopped in to a Google Streetview pic given the odd blurring in some places.
There's something in the background that's quite distinctive...CSI style triangulation required...

Found it, too far away for me to get to in a lunch time ride.
Quite impressed by the tag fraud above, top work.

If you check out the streetview shadows nearby you can see from the shadows that it was taken by a person with a camera rucksack.

Cheating at BTOB is serious business @user61862 .
So much so that I'm thinking this should be a bannable offence, but as it's the first time it's ever happened it seems fair to give a warning.
Don't cheat at BTOB.

I assumed it wasn't intended to be a srs cheat, but an obvious fake? otherwise why use the forum famous folding fixie?

+1
- Forum famous folding fixie
- Obviously potatochop (no shadows)
- Streetview screengrab (can tell by the blurred sections)
- Daylight photo when tag had been posted at night and was only a few hours old
- No new tag
- Incorrect location
It's a new meme all in itself...

Took that a good hour ago too, my own fault for faffing around too much.
I don't know why my post is in reply to velocio.

The Streetview pic had the ArcelorMittal Orbit in the background just above the gates. It's kind of visible in the new photos but not as clearly and obscured a bit by that crane.
For those struggling with the clue, it's near the end of the Limehouse Cut.

Devious photoshopping of bicycle tag of bike is a retag anyway...

Newsflash: New tag is invalid, it's actually a retag. Three Mills Green was done Three Years Ago:

Old: Island House, Three Mills Lane, Bow.
New: Tall, short, purpose built... they've got them all.

Diff object. Plus old tag was a ping pong table - invalid.
No-one wants to go to Rainham.
If we're that concerned, three mills itself, about 4 feet away from the previous tag, was done years ago..

We've got too slack on retags, pointing the camera a different way is still the same place :P
Also:
Playing Bike Tag
Look at last tag
If you know it, or can find out... get yourself and your bike there
Take photo of your bike at the location
Go elsewhere and take a photo of your bike at another location
Post both photos on here
Tell people where the old tag was
Don't tell people where the new tag is
If needed (obviously non-obvious), offer obscure clues as to the new tag location
Cryptic clue?
