I think you must have the wrong spot, it is about 10m off the road and is a car park (not a well maintained car-park but it is still a car-park),while you can not replicate the shot in Street view you can clearly see the spot I parked my bike in Street view & Sat view.

It's not gonna happen soon mate.
Our average tagging rate is 1.6 tags per day,but the average over the last 100 days is 0.6 per day BD has the most tags over the last year(35), while I currently have the most tags for the month at 8 or 9.
Triumph is 170 odd tags behind so even at a rate of our average it will take about 100 days if every single tag was claimed by a triumph

the stats sheet is slightly wrong for number of bike make tags at the moment.This came about when i redid the bike make table to make peoples newer bikes the number 1 choice when i fill out the new tags(bike make comes up automatically)This has upset the old group tag table,as the older stats sheets dont change after i copy them to archive sheets.So the actual number of make tags may change slightly as i go through and make sure i have the right make of bike on the old group tags.This mostly invloves BE,bd,kgb,stoney and sketchy

Whoops, yeah it was Hutt River, just off from the intersection at High St and Taita Drive.
