    This is a Dirt TOR Game that includes All of the State of Connecticut and All of the State of Vermont plus Massachusetts ( West of I-91 only)
    I'll try to keep the rules simple.
    Get the tag ( and tag object ) and reproduce the tag photo as best as possible.
    Take the tag ( and tag object ) to a new location and post the photos here.
    Give people a good idea of where you have placed the tag. GPS coordinates are OK, but I do not have a GPS unit so I won't be giving them on the first tag.
    Tag must be:
    a) Findable
    b) Placed on a dirt or gravel road,or a trail if you are so inclined.
    c) In a place that you can ride to LEGALLY,
    The motorcycle in the tag picture must get to the tag under its own power.

    Does the "mascot" have a name???

    How about "Doc's Chastity Belt Lock" ???

    Also, is there a prize for figureing out the combination?

    You seemed to make up a good name.:D
    If you can figure out the combination, You can
    have the lock to secure your bike. Then you are
    responsible for replacing the lock with a new one
    so the game can go on.

    No one wants to grab "Locky" and sent him on his way to a
    big adventure. Hell you can take him to the Border to
    look at Canadians.:eek1

    If the "Storm of the Century" blows thru here quickly enough, and if there is not too much flooding, trees down and overall mayhem:rofl:rofl:rofl, I will grab this Sat AM. Wish I could get to the NY Dirt tag while I'm up that way, but not on my GS pig :eek1!!!!

    Nope, sold the 650, then the Harley. Bought the 04 GS and banked some cash while I search for a more hard-core enduro bike. Probably going back to a plated 2 stroke:eek1.

    I am going to love this game. For the new location find this field in my town and turn left onto the dirt/rocky road. Less than 1/2 mile of dirt any bike could make it at slow speed.

    Down a short hill to a turn around and this gate.
    [​IMG]

    At the base of the tree, at the locked side of the gate,between 2 large rocks, you will find this old rusty housing. The lock is INSIDE the casing and concealed with some sticks. There are plenty of good trails all around this area but not legal to motorcycles. I wouldn't ride there on a holiday weekend !! I have GPS co-ords if anyone really wants them. Have a great, windy, weekend gentlemen!
