2015 Grand Tour Theme

[iayamaha]

To expand on the pirate theme, how about places that begin or end with an "R" or a "C" and doubles would be places that begin and end with the "R" or "C". I haven't looked into the difficulty of this one. There probably won't be many chances for doubles.

Another would be places that have at least 2 words for the name. Sioux City for a point and South Sioux City for 2 points.

Another theme might be a slight twist on Paul Revere's ride: "One if by N; Two if by E" or "One if by N; Two if by C" ; where locations will start and/or end with the N or E in one version and N or C in the second version. Doubles would begin and end with the two letters, much like book ends. One other double option would be 1 point for begin or end with N and two points for begin or end with the E or the C.

I personally would like to spend more time riding to points I can locate on a paper map than looking up potential places on the internet and then finding them with gps coordinates.

I also would find it frustrating to ride all afternoon for a point or two as was stated earlier.
