Here's the new tag. Hopefully a little more challenging. A fave riding spot for those from my neck of the woods.

Thanks.

Do you know where the new is?

Tell you what - after all the rain lately that pull off was fun to negotiate...

Found it! My old stomping ground.

Might get it in the morning if I leave early enough.

I have worked out where it is, but it sounds like swb might get there first.

Yes, I've pulled off at that spot a couple of times to take pictures - it's a pretty mean spot for a sunset. But it's a fair challenge getting back onto the road afterwards.

aws, what a wonderfully composed photo, I like the way you used the bike as one side of the image frame and got the reflected colours of the sunset onto the bodywork of the bike to expand the image.

Thought that one wouldn't be too hard for some. Made a point of covering the sign. That would've been a dead give away.

I was right! It's the local cemetery...
