dbigtex56 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) You really get around! Ever notice how much more can be seen when travelling on foot or bike, instead of in a car? Edited September 24, 2021 by dbigtex56 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted October 9, 2021 Author Share Posted October 9, 2021 Not sure what happened but my Strava app shut down while at the Westmore near Kirby. Apple Watch said 31 miles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted October 10, 2021 Author Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) Can't post my ride map because I chased a Bike Tag and created a new one for them to find. I think some players are now on HAIF and they would use my map to find the Bike Tag This was an easy find one for me to find since I've taken tons of pics at Tim Hootman's Law offices in the past.

hindesky Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 Got an early start cause I had a Bike Tag to chase, found it. It was at the "Third Ward Castle" with the turrets. Can't post my Strava ride map cause my Bike Tag is up to be found. Got in a beautiful cool day ride of 38 miles. http://swamplot.com/wichita-st-mystery-house-goes-on-the-market-today-your-first-peek-inside/2011-05-18/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 My Heat Map since I started using the Strava app. I used to use an app called Map My Ride but it was messing up a lot so I switched to Strava. I don't venture outside the loop very often unless I'm chasing a Bike Tag. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 I couldn't resist chasing after a reddit bike/houston Bike Tag after being off the bike for 8 months. I knew exactly were it was because I used to eat there on a somewhat regular basis plus they had music artists I like on Fridays and Saturdays. Goode Company Armadillo Palace on Kirby, got an early start cause the Bike Tag had been up for a few days and was only 2.7 miles away. I figured this was an easy one and should go quickly. My Bike Tag they have to find should also be an easy one since it was a mural by a Houston famous mural artist Nicky Davis. His stuff is easy to look up on the net and his style is easily recognizable. Sure enough after about 6 hours it was found. I took it easy, wore my knee brace but I probably went too far for my first time back on the bike for months. I was fried at the end. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 Reason for today's ride was to chase a Bike Tag. Had to look for this......609 W. 9th St. in the Heights, brand new house and a very unique fence. and now they have to find my Bike Tag.....so I can't post my ride map cause it's still up to find. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilcal Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Umm.... I love the cactus drinking fountain! I have absolutely no idea where it is. Can't wait to go visit it when someone finds it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to go visit it when someone finds it. I got the idea to use the cactus from a post on HAIF. I didn't know about it until I saw the post although I think I've ridden by the area many times. I tend to use new murals that haven't been posted on any mural maps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ok, they found my Bike Tag after 8 hrs. West side of St Joseph Catholic Church on Trinity St. next to Knapp Chevrolet's repair shop. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilcal Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 So I literally 100' from where I rode just this weekend. I really need to start riding on more side streets! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 I have no clue where to even look for the current Bike Tag so didn't even try. After I got home someone found it and it's not that far from me. I guess it's a new bar called Two Headed Dog on Elgin near Fannin. Have to figure where the new Tag is though. https://www.instagram.com/twoheadeddogtx/?hl=en 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 We have about 3 new players and the Bike Tags are coming daily if not hourly. I had to chase one in the Heights on W. 15th St. Only reason I know where it is was going to the Dian Street Villas going up just half block away. I was saving it for a future Tag spot. Got an early start to beat the heat and any others who might try and get it. It's at the Fluff Bake Bar. My Tag is one I rode by during the Heights Scavenger Hunt Spring '21. I've been saving it for the right time. If any of the players do the Scavenger Hunt it will go quickly. It's called "Passing the Torch" it was purchased but the homeowner and shipped to Houston. Couldn't get close cause the dog. But here is a better shot taken during the Scavenger Hunt and an articles about it. http://www.tattiartconservation.com/projects/2016/10/12/anna-hyatt-huntingtons-passing-the-torch https://www.ctpost.com/local/article/Torch-Bearers-headed-to-Houston-5100394.php 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 My Bike Tag has been found after just about 7 hrs. so I can post my route for today's ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted June 26, 2022 Author Share Posted June 26, 2022 Chased a Bike Tag in Rice University. It was between the two Cambridge office buildings. I think my Tag might be hard to find this time but we have a mural artist playing now so he may know where it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hindesky Posted July 8, 2022 Author Share Posted July 8, 2022 Two flats in two weeks both due to staples in my tire. First one was a paper staple, today was a cardboard staple right next to Warehouse Live. Luckily I carry all the tools, pump and spare tube to fix it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
