#scavhunt rules for while the Bike Arlington forum is down

As announced on the forum, the forum will be down on January 4 and 5. See http://bikearlingtonforum.com/announcement.php?f=41

While it is down:

*post your photos on your Strava feeds and use #scavhunt
*follow Serdar (https://www.strava.com/athletes/11555517) and Kelley (https://www.strava.com/athletes/12743105) on Strava so that they can see your posts. They will follow you back.
*when the forum is up, post your photos there retroactively

1/3/24 – Twirl

I took a video at the Belle Haven Marina of this wind speed sensor atop a sailboat mast to show it in motion but not sure if the Tapatalk App accepts videos?

Boomer2U,

It’s good that you did not post your video here.

Rule 13: It has to be a picture, not a video.

So, your photo is fine. But thanks for the link to your Strava feed.

Good point, Nadine. We will post the day’s word in this Freezing Saddles 2024 Strava Club.

I stopped under a few of my favorite maple trees to look for lingering samaras, but no luck. Instead, here’s a dance studio!

3 Jan 2024 Twirl

My BAFS tags were twirling as I rode.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Karen,

I am sorry to say this, but your BAFS tags qualify as objects brought from home. So, it’s a violation of Rule 14.

Rule 14: Let’s stick to things you find out there during your ride, not things you bring or make yourself (unless otherwise specified). Example 1: Don’t build a pile of dirt, snow, or rocks if the Wordle clue is “MOUND”; Example 2: if the Wordle clue is “FRUIT” don’t bring a piece of fruit with you on your ride, and take a photo of that. This takes the fun out of looking for things, which is the whole point.

Could you please delete the hashtag from your Strava post?

Hi bikingjenn. Thank you for your photos about mural and aging. Unfortunately, you posted them both on Jan 3.

Rule 3: For the main competition, it has to be posted in the Forum on the day for which it was requested, i.e., 12:01 AM EST to 11:59 PM EST for the day it was requested. Sorry, we won’t count the ones that aren’t posted for the day it was requested. That is part of the challenge.

Can you please delete the #scavhunt hashtag from your Strava posts?

1/3/24 Twirl (how did you know that would be the wordle word today? I don’t like that wordle answers are posted. I thought we were just supposed to put the picture and our story without being a wordle spoiler.

Twirl 1-3-24. I found a school playground with all kinds of outdoor play equipment that the children could ‘Twirl’ on. Since the school was open, I couldn’t go into the playground for a close up. But if you zoom into the picture, you will see the equipment that they can twirl on.

Thank you to everyone for playing along. May I remind you that you want to post your photos in this thread as well? On this leaderboard, I see some people’s names, but I can’t see their photos on the forum.
