    Hey ADVers, has anyone ridden around that old training base in Holopaw? From google, it looks like some nice (off) roads around there. Can you get on it?

    Good job Pepper!

    I got to cuss at two computers and beat the crap out of a printer instead of riding. Grocery store run is all I got to do.

    Maybe next time.

    So...... Where is the next tag?

    :lol3

    Yeah, I thought Sunstrom was gonna go get it, that's why I waited to post until Sunday night. Too bad you didn't get to ride, the weekend was great, got rained on all last week and this morning. But we need it.


    I need a rules clarification from Rich or whomever is the tag-o-rama guru for my next pic. Do I have to ride the same bike or can I post a pic with a different bke in it? It's still me on it. :D

    File photos and/or different bikes for the new tag placement are A-OK.... You just have to do ADV scouts honor that it was actually you who rode to the location.

    :thumb - Keep up the good work fellas - I'm hoping to snag one of these tags sometime, but am still in OH for work - maybe one of these times I'll get to stay home for more than a weekend and pull it off:deal

    I'll save the Central Fla pic for when Rich is in town, so I have a local one for us folks that live in the county named after the Governor named after the Emperor.

    Hint: There are no flamingos here, but they are close.

    yup. napoleon bonaparte broward.

    anybody know the story about him and teddy roosevelt?

    during his governorship, president TR came to visit florida. he tried reminding broward that he would never have been governor without his help. Broward replied, "with all due respect sir, you wouldn't be president if it wasn't for me smuggling guns to cuba".

    i'd like to go get it, but need some more clues. i did like your clue about the gov named after the emperor; sorry if i should have kept that one to myself, but i thought everybody knew it was in broward.

    anyway, any help would be great.

    I figured Sunstrom would chime in pretty quickly since I think of him as the Google Street View guy. If you go to the place that I alluded to in my first clue and head north, you will see it.

    I have lived in Broward most of my life and I do not have any idea where that is. Looks like the western part of the county

    Akshually, if you go to the place referred to in my hint, the governor/emperor thing kinda qualifies as a clue too.

    i need to spend more time out west. you'd think I'd have noticed a giant white elephant.
