Over to you Biggles. Bodo & Richo spot on also. I'll give it you as they're local  (if that's within the rules)?

Well done Honk.
And there was a reason I wasn't more specific in the RR.      ;-*

Now do a bit of research to narrow down where "here" might be...

No- wrong valley.  Well, actually, this isn't in a valley...

Toowoomba?  I haven't been there since 1997 so don't recall if that's in a valley or not.

It looks a little different on google.
The process was, well it looks like Victoria so I went through council websites until I found the one with the bird symbol.Then looked for places that have a railway line next to a main road.I looked at this location several times before I recognised a tree and the green sign.
Next one should be easy

That looks a lot like Border Road from Donovans to Caroline (sa/vic border).

Nope?

I reckon it's an AGM ride.  From the landscape and the way the motorcycles (but there not all ST's) are still "bunched-up", I say the 2014 AGM and not long after we left Kryall Castle.
