Bicycle Tag of bike

acrostic

Didn't know that word before, thanks Oliver!

You’re right, I thought the rules said ‘picture of the location’ but they say ‘picture at the location’. Significant difference. To avoid setting a naughty precedent I’ve added a rule-abiding supplement.

excellent!

I am a law abiding citizen

you made me think!

Old tag. Gas holder behind Studio 338, Boord Street, Greenwich Peninsula. Viewed from bridge over A102 Blackwell tunnel Southern approach.

Someone let me know if this is a retag. I forgot to check the map...

I love a good gas holder. This one is called Jumbo (at the time of building it was the largest gasometer in the world), and is unfortunately under threat of demolition despite the original planning brief saying "development should build on the heritage value of the gas holder to enhance the character and distinctiveness of the area": https://853london.com/2018/05/03/save-jumbo-east-greenwich-gasholder-petition-nears-700-signatures/

Good spot!

Old: alms house on Lee high road

Is that where I think it is?

Maybe...

Crazy, but that’s how it goes

You've got it, whether anyone actually wants to go there to get the tag is another matter though...

Oh how I wish this was a retag.

You know where this is?

‘ Tags must be within London (limits are the North and South Circular roads)’

Is it?

I thought the North and South circular rule was only a guideline. (I’ve certainly been told so in the past and there certainly has been precedents)

I do know where it is. In fact my bike is on the picture.

So cheeky...

Ahh if that's the case then this is a fail, I thought the rules had been relaxed at some point to being within the M25? Let me know if so and I'll delete the above.

Normally I like a bit of rule breaking and it is within the M25 but with the bank holiday weekend, and all the good weather that I am confidently predicting, perhaps a tag more central might help the game progress a bit faster.

On the other hand perhaps the long weekend is perfect for some long distance tagging, might make a nice day out for someone, tho the only other time I've heard the word nice used about this place is in sentences like "it's so nice to leave this place" or "isn't it nice that we don't live here".

I've got some Veloviewer tile bagging rides that could easily take in that tag (and bring it back closer to home), and have Monday's off, but next week is a bank holiday so it'll be family time rather than me time.

I thought the rules had been relaxed at some point to being within the M25?

That's my understanding too. Having let various people do tags within the M25 in the past it would seem harsh to disallow this.

Yeah, I tagged Beddlested Lane which is way outside South circular. No way this should be disallowed.

Yes you do, you might not know you do, but you do.
