Vermont Tag O Rama

Bad for the house?

It traps in moisture.... Unless the house is made of metal.... wood needs to breath. Without proper ventilation, wood will rot from wetness or dryness.

E.C.- So I have heard. I was able to ride to work today as a consolation prize though.

It was an ideal day for housepainting, but I ended up not doing that. Good on ya for resisting the vinyl (though the cement stuff is intriguing, should the lottery come through).

This is a great building, east of the biggest part of the state. Odd thing about this is that it's round, in part for the same reason as the schoolhouse a few pages back. Another pic to follow, and sorry for the lousy cellphone pic. The choice was stretch it or post it sideways, until I get better at this.

Here's the detail of that plaque you can see behind my bike in the first shot.

Where do I get in line for one of those "stretched" Stroms?

Old tag:

New tag:

Can I get a clue as to where the new tag is is?




Love the Old Round Church! Looks a lot like a Hexadecagonal Church to me though.

2nd that =)

I spent an hour Googling dams, waterfalls, hydro etc with zero luck

The dam is on the Winooski River.
I am not sure if the spot where I took the picture is always accessible, but there is a public park below the dam with road access.

It's the one with the free Beemer in front of it.

Asking for a clue 2 hours after the tag is posted!? Sheesh, is this an adventure or a walk in the park? I can draw you a map.

Ahhh, nice. I drove by that road a couple times recently and wondered where it went.

I'd just rather be riding than searching online for clues

That and there are an awful lot of dams in Vermont to just try and visit them one by one

OLD TAG


I thought I was in for a right proper brucing on this one. Ellivnad was googling, Freya129 was giving me hell and Guymanbro was commenting. On the way to the tag, I met a guy from Michigan on a GS that was touring NE and shot the bull for about 45 min. Just as I was getting ready to head to the tag, a red F800GS rode by going towards the NEK. Crap! I thought, There goes Ellivnad on his way home to post the tag :ddog and thought....well he probably has a blackberry or something so I'm already F'd. Why am I even bothering? Well I figured it would be a nice ride and I've never seen that dam before.

So I get caught in a traffic jam in Waterbury and decide to pass everyone on the right side and finally get to the tag. I took my pic and headed to Red Hen Bakery for the WiFi connection to post. Where the hell is my camera's USB cord???? Well It either fell out of my backpack when I lubed my chain in Groton or it fell out at the tag location. Back to the tag and was about to give up looking and VOILA! I figured I'd stop at Green Mountain Coffee to see if they had WiFi. They did, and that's the end of the story. My fingers hurt.

Welcome to the show Tom. I see your keeping the DR clean and sparkly.

Thanks VT, It needed a good power washing after an awesome weekend of class 4 and legal trails in the Groton/Peacham/Ryegate/Danville area.

No competition here today, I'm on baby duty tonight

Nice snag!

*Some of you might not have noticed that there is a Dirt TOR with the tag in VT for the last few drops ... you know, if you're looking for more riding =) http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=615990
