Bicycle Tag of bike

Do the "simple" thing with the clue.
Or see what our esteemed friend has been up to recently.

Worked it out few days ago but won't be anywhere near it for a while.

Still not a clue but will be cycling between Greenwich and Stratford tomorrow, I’m hoping with another clue I’m in the right area?

Thanks Will, I even thought about replying or @ing you… I had read the top of that thread but not followed every link.

Old: Bromley Hall School, Bromley Hall Road/ Leven Road. No cat for me

New: easy to get it moving, but a bit of a grim location. If you can’t manage the steps a photo from the bridge adjacent should get it. Surprised it wasn’t tagged already but nothing came up on the search.

Nice tag. I hate hot weather though so unlikely to get it soon.

I'm not sure I'd say it's a "nice" tag. Might snag this tomorrow if nobody beats me to it! First time for everything.

Old, a plaque commemorating the opening of the 7th circle of hell/ Blackwall Tunnel.

New: I'm surprised this hasn't been tagged already. I imagine plenty of people will recognise it but will provide a clue if not.

Pretty sure it has been done before.
And yet it seems not. I've always assumed it had been.
Google images brings it up otherwise a clue would be helpful.

It's been mentioned before but I couldn't find an actual tag and it's not on the maps.
A detail from the mural is probably as good as clue as any.

Edit: shit, I keep forgetting not to tag you. Sorry!

It's weird, I have it on my list of things that have been tagged but it hasn't been. May be we all thought it had been so no one did it.
You fascist.

NEW: this one is for Oliver.

Sorry, Will, that would have been too easy, as I knew where it was. :)

It sort of has been done and sort of hasn't, I'd be inclined to let it stand as it was a long time ago.

It's been done at least twice, and was in fact one of the earliest tags, first by @Sumo, but he got the old tag wrong, and then by @bq. Here:

It was done again a couple of years later, but I can't remember by whom.

Damn! I missed those in my search of the thread.

I don't have a back up tag I'm afraid. Are we happy to let it ride seeing as the previous tag is a decade old?

The rule that's been applied at times is quite simple: In case of a re-tag, the previous tag is still open, so if someone chooses to tag that and something else, they can. If they choose to accept your re-tag, they can tag that and something else. Alternatively, you can of course also go out and set a new tag that's not a re-tag.

Personally, I always prefer it if a re-tag is swapped for another tag.

Cool, I'll leave it to someone to decide which tag to get! No chance of me setting a new tag before Monday unfortunately. My first foray in to bike tag and it's all gone tits up.

For me, this all adds to the texture of the game; I enjoy these contributions.

At least I've potentially saved someone from a trip down a piss soaked stairway to the side of the Blackwall Tunnel approach. Doing the lord's work.

For future reference, where did I go wrong searching to check if my new tag had been done already? I searched a few different words that I thought might be in there and checked the Google maps on the first page.

I wouldn't worry. Retags are all part of the fun. Searching works for most of them. For the rest, you wait for someone with a very long memory to call you out. And even then, it's not a bad thing. Definitely don't let the possibility of a retag put you off.
