Yes:niceone: Location is on SV. However, you can't quite get to the exact spot I took the pic from in SV but it does give you the correct perspective. (You can get to within 25mtrs and then it jumps past).
Looks like my plan to take everyone out of the game has worked. No sign of the Blackstig, Drogen, Sketchy, Devo , Laxi, RWH, KGB, Scout or any of the others.:devil2::clap:

The clue for me was trhe big red sign to the left(obscured by my bike i think).There is quite a distinctive house behind it.I used these two points to draw a line but as Cloggy said it just wasnt high enough.
I made a map (http://maps.google.co.nz/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=118362401955073790939.00047c8500d25195bdfcf&ll=-41.18492,174.839344&spn=0.034365,0.084543&t=h&z=14) which didnt seem quite right.I just extended the line out and guess where it ens up.

Tried that - didn't go past the automated system though as I honestly don't know if my version of windows is actually legit. I did a registry edit and changed the key to another one which I had but then had issues activating windows. Another regedit (dodgy) and windows is now activated but still can't pass the authentication check to use updates.
@StoneY, your assistance would be greatly appreciated! I think the issue I'm having is the keys I have are OEM ones through work etc....

Your in my back yard now, used to have a neat moto cross track there back in the 80's, but then they started building houses as the do and for some reason new residents don't like noisy motorbikes.

Sweetacre Drive at the top of Belmont.

And the new one.
I was going to put it at the telephone exchange on Major Drive in Kelson, almost right across the road from aer0's place to see if we could lurk him out of retirement. But unfortunately it was too dark to take a decent pic.
Also, with these late night tagging missions, I am almost on a first name basis with all the coppers doing alcohol checkpoints.
Officer: " Didn't we stop you earlier tonight?"
Me: "Yes sir."
