Yeah, I got stuck on the corner as well going up and when I ventured out on top of the tank, the bike sunk into the ground and if I had stopped I would have been bogged in, hence why I was facing the other way.

Yeah spose you can actually (well I wouldn't call it "triangulate", perhaps "biangulate"), especially when the landmark is Miramar plus the airport!

I'm sure my boss thinks the same thing some times :) But when I get to work at 6:30am it does mean I can sneak out early occasionally ... but don't let it stress you out as long summer evenings means the weeknight tagging can keep you rather busy !
