Bicycle Tag of bike

New: In the interest of keeping this going with pace, I am going to go wild with clues.

Don't lose your head trying to get this, you're having a bubble if you think it's not bleedin' obvious. There's not going to be much Moore happening here, as its former inhabitants are now Slaven away somewhere else. Seeing as it's not too taxing, would you be able to get it by the end of the weekend? Elijah Wood.

Excellent Tommm. That missing link was another octagonal tower that once stood on the site just behind York Watergate:

and

That accumulator tower might be open at Open House, it has on previous years. Would love to go, proper victorian bonkers engineering. As an energy reservoir, I'd like to see more of them!

There's a report here from someone who did go on Open House Day:

wow

Interesting stuff!

You know what, I live just up the road from there and often wonder what it is. Was staring at it yesterday as I walked around the basin – had no idea it was due a tag! Thanks @oat44 and @tommmmmmm!

The new one is one of the easiest going- it's clearly London's most classy and attractive buildings, and you have about 3,000 clues - so someone should go and get it!

Looks like a Thursday night special, if no one else can be arsed then I might try then.

don't hang around the new tag won't be there for long

That missing link was another octagonal tower

CSB ...and a precursor to the London Shard on the skyline (not octagonal of course)

And for that same reason, my ageing parents can no longer park outside my house on match days, boo.

Old: Boleyn Ground, West Ham's recently closed ground in Upton Park. It's slated for demolition and redevelopment, and as you can see they've already removed one of the coats of arms from the little castles*.

I popped into Ambala on Green Street for some excellent Asian sweets which is more what I think of when I think of Green Street than football violence. Also Elijah Wood has to be the worst choice of casting for a football thug ever!

New: Less cryptic, more triptych. Fans of mindfulness will no doubt approve of the name of this venue and I'm sure we can all agree bike tag is a game where you need to live in the moment.

*technical term

Doesn't count unless you solve every one of the bad puns in my clue.

Old: BT Sport building, Olympic media centre.

New: further up the valley they are strict on chemical usage. (Also you can look up the website for an easy clue)

Wait aren't bike tags meant to be in London?!

Good effort on doing ABC though and not just thinking 'CBA'.

Hmmm, suspiciously easy to find and also pretty much in @Ramsaye's back garden.

IT'S A TRAP!

Good effort on doing ABC though and not just thinking 'CBA'.

If people couldn't be arsed, tag would end quickly.

@Ramseye's bike's looking pretty 'organic' right now ...

@Ramsaye I'm on the way, get the kettle on.

Old: Somewhere in northern England, about 2.6 miles north of the acceptable borders of the game, and suspiciously close to the tagger's home.

New: Someone bad at French might think this is also out in the open, but 5 metres further south and this would be in an inner London borough.

Hawkwood.

Cheers, couldn't do that on my phone, still sweating my way home.

Can't see anything on the border that matches, another clue perhaps?

Here's another clue then: It's not in Canada or Islington, but it's close.
