    I came up from Alabama to visit my brother and found that you guys didn't have a Tag-o-Rama game going. Many many other states have tag games going and it is very addicting to play. Tag-o-Rama gives you a great excuse to go out and ride as well as a chance to visit places you might not have been to before.

    Rules are easy...

    #1 - Find the tag and reproduce the photo (as best as possible). The first person to post a found tag gets to place the next tag. If you get a tag, but somebody else posts their picture first, you lose.

    #2 - Take the tag to a new location, get the photo and post it here (pre-staging is allowed, see rule #4). Give a few hints so the next person can figure out where the tag is located. Try to place the tags in interesting locations, maybe a bit of history that can be found down some nice twisties.

    #3 - Tag must be findable. Dirt roads are allowed. Please use the Dirty-Diesel Scale (or DDS) when appropriate.

    0= nice paved road
    1= rough older paved road
    2= maintained gravel road
    3= maintained dirt road
    4= unmaintained dirt or gravel road
    5= double track jeep trail

    #4 - File photos are permitted for DROPPING a new tag. You still must ride to the tag to grab it. If using a file photo, the same bike that is used for grabbing the existing tag must be in the tag drop photo.

    #5 - No whining.

    Now that the rules are taken care of, here is the first tag.

    That's a liitle too far from KC for this time of year for a round trip. I had never heard of it before. I was right there this summer and didn't know to stop.

    There doesn't seem to be much interest in playing photo tag in this area and I'm not moving back east. So here it is, not a file photo

    Taken today, I put aside working on the house and went for a ride. If you notice there are still leaves on the trees.

    There is a covered bridge in the background, it's at the end of a paved road, the same road that used to cross it.
