@Sunyata, My wife and I occasionally foster dogs from Lost Dog. Any points for that?

YES! How about 250 points for fostering? Add an additional 1000 points if the dog/cat ends up being a foster failure.

* Note, you do not have to ride your bike to get points! But in order to get points, you do have to volunteer or drop off donations (so, you can not just ride there, turn around and get five points).
**Double points if you go at 7am before coffee club![/LIST]

How many points for walking dogs you already rescued?

Seriously, though, I love this pointless prize. Not going to win, but I’ll try to make an early riser walk + commute a weekly thing.

Leaderboard appears to be blank. When tagging, does it need to be in the title of the ride instead of just the description?

Looks like the hashtag needs to be in the ride’s name, not description (source).

[huskerdont]

rcannon100, your points come from Darby alone.

Thx Josh. I will include in title from now on.

FYI, it appears that ObscureRichard is using #FS2019LostDog, whereas Sunyata is using #BAFS2019LostDog.

No matter to me; I’m just in it to see happy doggies.

That one looks empty, as well (using the generic hashtag leaderboard generator at https://freezingsaddles.org/pointless/hashtag/BAFS2019LostDog)

Note – per the information on that page, hashtags are case-sensitive.

Sounds fair to me! Now we just find a good foster. Our pooch is a bit picky about who he shares a house.

FYI – The hashtag leaderboard will only show the leader of the most rides to the rescue. The actual points leaderboard is here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1roXcX_czSacfxLCh1JTEllqcD6yym4CgAXdylsxJpu4/edit#gid=1147479350

And if you do not post about it here on the forum, your points do not get counted. As much as being psychic would be helpful in my daily life, unfortunately, I am not blessed with such a gift.

How many points for transporting dogs back from the vet?

Oh, did I mention that Lost Dog Rescue’s vet is out in Purceville…. you know, right next to the starting / ending point of Pete Beer’s Friday Hooky rides
https://www.facebook.com/events/404039537003712/

And if you transport a dog back to Falls Church, arguably your trip is a contribution to Lost Dog and tax deductible to the full extent of somebody’s law?

Any bonus points for taking a dog to the vet by bike?
