Don't be afraid to get your bike a little dirty!!!
Extra credit if you go at night!
Should be easy for you Sherlocks.

Ride On!
Chris

This tag makes me think about taking the day off & going fishing after getting it. This is a cool area.

Badhabbit I figured where I went wrong I forgot to loop around the back
Maybe I'll snag the new one on the way to millville

Although the moon was out tonight it could not help brighten this place up at night.

I tried several times to adjust the camera. I thought I had it, mount it on the tripod, and "click" the batteries are dead!!!!!

So NJ tag crew, this is what I got.

(O.C.F. rider, poor as my photo may be, do I get the extra credit??

Oh, yeah....Congratulations, Chris for getting a very difficult tag. Local knowledge certainly helps when the tag is a row of trees and the clues suck!

no arguments here - I could have make it more obvious... if I knew that's what you're after
come on now and give me some credit.. The intent was to give everyone a shot at it and even the local guys, 15 min away, were scratching their heads
..you don't hear Yellow Iron or stbob complaining... so what that they came empty handed... they rode many miles and isn't what this tag is all about?
If you ask me, probably there's no place in NJ where locals can get from home or work in 20 min. or less..
anyway, for a moment there I thought maybe some of you are afraid of little competition, but the plan is to move tag around - okay, okay i got it
..but don't make me feel like I'm the univited guest at a b-day party

When they said bears, I was trying to find a way to get a rifle on the Ram mount

Now I can go back to sleep! Thought I was headed to bear country to get the double. Then I was going to move it South near Cycle John!

We had Fish and Game in Camp Lewis on Thursday. Three biologists saw four bears within the first 10 minutes they were there and had one on a radio tracker. We then had to bring in a culvert trap. I'll let you know how it turns out so they can be relocated. The old golf course on Green Pond Rd is a state release spot, that's one of the reasosns for the numbers.

maybe it was one busy bear?
Don't tell me the biologists were holding hands..

[O.C.F.RIDER]

Nice grab NJjeff! Your extra credit prize is.....................................a plate of cold linguini, to be collected at my place!
Tried to make it Easy with the Clues, so I don't get YELLED at for stalling "The Game".
Would have had the tag up a little quicker, 'cept that I had to stop on Clinton Road to help out 2 sporty biker guy's that, ahem, ran out of talent on one of the tight downhill decreasing radius left handers. Nobody hurt, but quite the yard sale of late model Jap plastic!!!!

Ride On!
Chris

[NJjeff]

Chris, thanks for the prize.


Clues:
* This 1786 Dutch Farm house was on 145 acres, today nearly all of the property is a reservoir.
* It was built by Uriah ____________ (name of house).
*The road it's on is named after his wife Maria Polly Berdan.
*Today it's a museum.

Front of house photo: A very simple trip on the lawn and you can get this photo.

Thanks for the good clues. I found it in a few minutes on Google but it's about 70 miles away and I have to work today.

Looks like under 15 miles for you and O.C.F..

Really sorry to hear that. We have such a small state, and such a great game. Splitting it in half takes most of the fun out of it for me, at least.

Too bad you fellows can't do an hour or two to a tag. Just think what the Pa. folks have to do sometimes! And there is nothing wrong with a nice ride to a Bruce. I was expecting to be Bruced on the Lincoln Drive tag. Guess I caught the Pa. fellows sleeping.

Such a shame.

Now, I'm off to drop the Pa. Tag. Should be about two hours there and two hours back.
