Is that outside a private residence or a business / organisation of some sorts where it has some relevance to the activities they are engaged in?
If outside a private residence I have no hope of locating it as there are no clues in the pic as to possible location, could be in any hilly suburb.:blink:

Not quite in street view, very close but can't quite see the building, which is a toilet. About 20 metres of gravel if you want to call it that, and about another 100-200 metres to grab the bottom of the north tag as well

Hey guys (and gals)

Thanks for all the messages for a speedy recovery and concern for my well-being. The foot was the only injury (except a split lip and a few bruises) so I feel pretty darned lucky. Doctors did a great job of stitching it all back to something like the original.

I picked a good spot as 2 nurses and a paramedic were on hand to stop me writhing around in pain and to make sure my neck was not moved after I did a small flying act followed by a tuck and roll up over the kerb onto the footpath. The medical staff did a fantastic job, so hats off to them.

So I won't be riding again for a while, but once I am healed and have some new riding gear Quasi has offered to take me for a ride on the back of a real bike :)

Hey Andy - Welcome back young man! - glad the damage to body not too major and you here to tell the tale. This has stuck very firmly in mind, how easy it is for a ride to go wrong.

I will be very gentle on you when you ready for a real ride:innocent::shit:

Welcome Back Andy, Great that your injuries wont be holding you down for long, more important than anything is that you came away from this in almost one piece. :yes:

Hey guys (and gals)

Thanks for all the messages for a speedy recovery and concern for my well-being. The foot was the only injury (except a split lip and a few bruises) so I feel pretty darned lucky. Doctors did a great job of stitching it all back to something like the original.

I picked a good spot as 2 nurses and a paramedic were on hand to stop me writhing around in pain and to make sure my neck was not moved after I did a small flying act followed by a tuck and roll up over the kerb onto the footpath. The medical staff did a fantastic job, so hats off to them.

So I won't be riding again for a
while, but once I am healed and have some new riding gear Quasi has offered to take me for a ride on the back of a real bike :)
