I *might* have already gathered the minimum number of GT towns already as of today...

It going to be 60 Friday & Saturday here! BMR & GT rides it is!

Shooter...I'm aiming for triple digits this year. Still wanna bet?

I'm in... Big Grin

Mike,

Do the signs need to be in English? I was in the Ukrainian Village and Greek Town in Chicago yesterday and saw several signs that would qualify but hesitate to stop and take a picture. What say you? Yes No?

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - MikeH - 04-04-2014 12:21 PM

Agreed on the new thread for side bets, trash talk and the like.
kinda want to try to keep this to questions on the GT

I'm scratching my head on drphill's question. So you found a sign for Chicago written in Ukrainian? If that was the case I won't except it, takes way too long to verify.

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - drphill - 04-04-2014 02:47 PM

OK, that's what I figured.

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - FrumpAdmin - 04-07-2014 03:09 PM

I split some of the stuff on this thread into a new thread "2014 Grand Tour Trash Talk'n, Picture Posting, Whatcha Doing Thread" and then made this thread a sticky (always at the top). Let's keep this thread about GT questions, answers and stuff which will be helpful to GT riders. Don't be afraid to post here, but let's keep it on track.

I was trying to figure how to post pics into the threads here. I think I finally figured it out and just decided to leave this one. Some of you will appreciate this one. Belongs to a friend of mine

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - Alchemy - 04-18-2014 10:28 PM

Exactly how are you verifying if towns are real/legit? I've been picking up unincorporated towns that have a business there, verifying on wikipedia before I head out. Is that sufficient?
example : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Pass,_Oregon

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - MikeH - 04-19-2014 11:13 AM

I google search towns & if I find something I consider it good.

RE: 2014 Grand Tour Questions - paper - 04-19-2014 11:26 AM

If I remember right, Jack and Marlene told me they used Microsoft Streets and Trips and if it was there, they accepted.. They're not Rally Masters, and I accept whatever Mike says. Smile

The reason I bring this up is that towns that are on GPS's aren't always on Google or even Streets and Trips..

My GPS shows Ridott, IL, Ridott Township, and Ridott Corners.
Streets and Trips shows Ridott and Ridott Corners as separate towns, and doesn't show Ridott Township.
Google Maps shows Ridott and nothing else..

I show photos of all three.. Smile

Oh, and it's RyeDot, rather than sounding like a frog.. Riddit, riddit, riddit..

I think I shall go gather more towns!! Smile

Unfortunately couldn't make it Jeff. Sad

I was running a motor, but on a big wood chipper, not the Connie.
