ok .... a new game.
the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable and the person who guesses correctly gets to either post a photo themselves OR nominate someone to post a photo.
sooo .... to start the game off here we go with something relatively simple .....
Where is this?

Can we try and narrow it down. Is it in Tasmania, must be near civilisation as fish is there on his Harley and we all know they can't go more than 50km from a servo or 100km from a dealership.

-
Yep! .. been there, seen that... mmm ... 11 years ago? while on annual holidays touring ride.
-
No takers?... OK... this might start to read like a book, but in 2006 I decided to ride to Darwin while on my annual leave. A bit over 7000 km, but three weeks break to achieve it on the 900 Bol Dor. Details below are from my travel diary.
First 2 days of travel was from Portland Vic to The Alice in NT... a bit over 3500 Km.
I had heard about a monument to a fallen rider around 70 Km east of Alice Springs through a friend, and decided to head for the Ross River near the East Mac range for a stickybeak.
The riders name was Terry Michael Gill, known to his friends as 'Fish' for obvious reasons.
In late 1998, he and a friend were riding their Harleys back to Alice springs on the Ross River Road into the late setting sun when Fish, aged 44, going quite slowly may have glanced into the rear vision mirror to see where fellow biker Trevor “Poodge” Packham was and he hit a camel, was knocked backwards and had his spine snapped when it struck the number plate mount sticking up from the rear mudguard.
When Poodge, who’d seen the sparks of the crashing bike ahead of him got to Fish seconds later, he was lying dead by the side of the road.
The handle bars and petrol tank on the monument came from the crashed Harley.
Half of Fish’s ashes are in the left-hand fuel cell, the other half interred at Alice Springs cemetery, and the Gill family buried Fish’s dog Sleepy, which was 16 years old, behind the cairn in 2006.
Alice Springs riders have an annual ride to visit the site.

I do not have any pics to carry this thread on, as my ex scored all my photo albums, so I will pass the ball back to Pete. I am sure he will have another photo / location to continue this thread.

Well I'm glad you went for a ride off the beaten track, or we might have missed out on that great account!
And StinkyPete probably thought he was safe for a long time with something as remote as that.

Thats correct biggles...also better known as Three Ways....over to you

Just a quick little sideline about this location. Way back in the early 70's, my mate Jeff and myself arrived at the three ways intersection from The Barkly Hwy (Mt Isa)
We stopped for a rest break and a cuppa at the intersection (There was no roadhouse around the corner, then)
We were deciding whether to turn north (Darwin) or head South to SA, it was a 'flip a coin' moment.
While the billy was on the gas ring, we commented on the ridiculous Bus Stop sign at the intersection. I mean, what clown would erect a bus stop sign in the middle of nowhere? ... and then along came a bus.
Apparently one would head north from the Alice towards Darwin, and one would come west from the Isa heading for Tennant Creek, and they would meet here at the three ways and exchange a few Passengers.
The bus driver got out and berated us for parking on the bus stop and we thought he was joking, but he was fair dinkum about it!
So we wheeled our bikes ten feet fwd and around the corner, carried the gas bottle and billy to the bikes, and sat on our camp stools until the billy boiled. We then took great pleasure in enjoying a fresh made cuppa coffee in front of the driver and travelers.
Ten minutes later the other bus arrived, some passengers were exchanged and they moved on.
The Flynn memorial is about 50 metres north of the current Servo on the east side of the Stuart Hwy, at a rest / parking area less than a Km from the Three Ways intersection.

This is technically correct, but so would NSW or AUS, so my reasoning was that something more specific was in order.

Technically correct too, but that's what's in the background, not where the Mighty ST1300 is parked.

Not necessarily. As said above, Mt Kossie is in the background, some 11km away. The Mighty ST could be a different suburb, locality or even State. The latter is not actually the case in this instance, but that would be an achievement, so who's gunna be the first with that pic?
Anyway in this case , the Mighty ST1300 is at Geehi, NSW. Perhaps I was being a bit too testical.

Williamson and I have had a chat on PM yesterday and reached an understanding.
I believe the spirit of the game is to identify the feature in the photo.
Hence a photo of Sydney Harbour Bridge couldn't be called "The Rocks" or "Luna Park".

Nope! Woomera is inland, by my reckoning approx. 170km as-the-crow-flies from the coast (Port Augusta), whereas these pics were taken approx. 500m from the nearest mass of coastal waters.

OK. I'll take a stab at Kangaroo Island. Never been there, but since it has windmills, it's probably be SA. They love 'em!

The over-saturated colours in the first pic don't look at all like Tassie, but the second one has clues that suggest Musselroe Wind Farm.

That one is a long way from the sea.... location of the particular windfarm is only about 300 metres from the coast.

Dosent always look this foggy I met a young fellow on the foggy day that had just clawed his way back on to the road after going off the side on a borrowed sports bike. Lucky to be alive and lucky he could get himself back to the road. when we looked back down where the bike was there was a car that had gone over years before and must have been too much effort to recover.

You have a keen eye Jonathan, but those points are not relevant. However you are correct the Black ST is not mine, but it was mine for the day.

In the 40's, when they flooded the lake, a few towns were submerged. This pic was taken above one of the submerged towns. The town had the name of a stone fruit. But don't give me that name, the nearest town now has a different name.

Lincoln? I'm pretty sure the flooded town was Peach.
-
Lincoln? I'm pretty sure the flooded town was Peach.
Correct!
:clap
Inchelium and Keller survived. Boyds, on the backed-up lower stretch of the Kettle River, is a single business and a few houses. Lincoln became a boat launch. Peach and Gerome vanished.
The pic was taken next to the Lincoln boat ramp.

Helen and I are currently touring the USA and CAN, called into see and stay with ToddC (a colleague from ST-Owners, a US based ST forum) and Kari (his wife). Todd generously loaned me one of his three ST1300's for the day, we went for a ride, hence the pic.

there must be a ST in the photo.
That can be amended to read "There must be your ST or the Bike you currently ride."

It's at Kapunda, home of "Map the Miner", the big statue which commemorates the Cornish miners who settled and worked in the area. This supported by the small "Rotary Art Show" sign in the right of the photo, and the Kapunda Rotary Club have an annual art show. The photo is at a site on the northern outskirts of the town on the Thiele Highway. See https://goo.gl/maps/D1uBw5jhWkS2 :popcorn

Well done. It's a view of Gosse Bluff (Tnoralla) meteorite crater from Tyler Pass Lookout, 40 km west of Glen Helen. Gosse Bluff was caused by a meteorite impact around 140 million year ago. I've been there on the bike a couple of times, as Glen Helen is one of my favorite places in Australia. It's quite evocative to sit on the banks on the Fink River, which at 400 million years old, is the oldest river in the world which is still flowing on it's original course.

It's taking a while following the links to get the exact location.
Update:
A plaque commemorates the services of Gerald James Sullivan towards the progress of the Coolah area.
Gerald James "Gerry" Sullivan (1943 – 2000) was an Australian politician. He was the Labor member for Wollongong in the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 1991 to 1999. Sullivan was born in Binnaway and was educated at Binnaway and Coonabarabran before attending the University of Wollongong. He joined the Coogee branch of the Australian Labour Party in 1961.

If you don't mind a bit of dirt, you can go down the Lions Rd to Simes Rd and down through Lynches Ck Rd to Wiangaree. This bypasses the current 6 lots of bridge works on Gradys Ck.
My Dad's uncle was one of the bulldozer drivers who helped build the Lions Rd. The local bus company owner Mr Simes built Simes Rd.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170516/f6dedcbcb4bac6a2628433919852eebe.jpg)

And you are correct. A bit too easy, only 20 minutes from posting question to response. Is that a record?
Anyway, over to you Gary.
-
Could be a record. Finally a view I recognised. This next one could be the only photo I have for this game as somehow I lost a couple.
A clue is available if required.

sorry lads and lass',
I was taken 'off line' for a bit.
The answer to the photo is indeed Sarina.
I now return you to normal programming.

Better get out a get some then Gary.
Current pic? After looking at the evidence, slightly elevated position, overlooking a small village / township, I have come to the conclusion that I am (again) like the deer with no eyes.
I then looked at rock formations and native vegetation and conclude that I'm like the deer with no eyes and no legs.
But after looking at the moss on the tree trunks and determining the prevailing wind conditions (from the cloud formations), I now conclude that I'm like a deer with no eyes, no legs and no willy.
I will need a clue. But hold off for now Gary, others out there may be wiser than me.
-
.... I was taken 'off line' for a bit....
Welcome back, we'll need a hand with Gary's latest.

Somewhere along the Murray River?

He came to the Overland Corner RTE via Red Cliffs so he has. I know Tungkillo was way off course from that trip, but that's what his photo reminded me of.

Bit hilly around Tungkillo, but I can see a "lookout" above Palmer. However the roads there are gravel, not sealed as in the pic.

The one I am thinking of is sealed.

Not there though. Not as far from home.

Correct. I thought it would become easy with the clue. It is billed as Australias or maybe the worlds smallest mountain.

I went through there on the Balranald tri-state trip as I returned via Warrnambool (long detour).

I've heard that also. But not so, according to this Wikipedia entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mountains_in_Australia#Victoria (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mountains_in_Australia#Victoria)

Generally, the title of my Photobucket albums is based on the trip destination or event. An album will most likely include pics taken on the way to and from the destination. In this case, it was on the way to SEQ and included the 2015 AGM at Toowoomba.
I'll have to get more ingenious in storing my pics.

The map in my tank bag is not always a good indicator, eg. today I went for a ride up to Seymour, whereas the tank bag window had a Bendigo map.
But, in this case you are correct. I think you could add AKA "Eagle Eye" in your signature.

The shingle (which I've cleverly disguised) indicates 1857. Methinks that might be when the Inn was first built, but I don't think that building is that old, still it looks pretty old.

I post a pic of the ST in front of feature on the entrance to a town on a road that nobody had heard of, or ridden on, and it get's identified within a couple of hours. Bloody Newbie Locals.
Anyway, you are correct so over to you Chris.
This thread needs to keep moving, can't wait until you get moving on your ST, so a pic of one of the CX's, in front of something iconic, notable, a feature or whatever .....will suffice. Alternatively, you could nominate another forum member to continue in your stead.
Wednesday's ride to Raymond Island and Thursday's return (pic of the ST leaving RI on the ferry in earlier post) was a last minute decision to visit an old mate on RI.
Part of Thursday's route:

What are TISM known for?
TISM were known for their hybrid of dance music and rock'n'roll, high-energy live shows and humorous lyrics. TISM's songs frequently satirised modern culture, celebrities and the entertainment industry, classic literature and art, current affairs, politics and sport. The titles of their songs were often wordplays created by juxtaposing pop culture references with more intellectual ones (for example, "Would the Last Person to Leave Please Turn Out the Enlightenment?", "Jung Talent Time" and the album Machiavelli and the Four Seasons).

Is there a particular incantation one must mutter to get a photo on here. I have a Photobucket account but it is not obvious how to select the photo and put it into the thread and the reply box seems to allow you to select a file on your computer but the preview doesn't show the picture selected from the computer. I have a particularly short fuse for things techno so can someone help?
-
Kev....?🤓
-
Hi Langers,
Photobucket has been very problematic of late, with issues in uploading and viewing.
Best way to upload is to click on "Attachments and other options" just below the dialog box, then "Attach" and select "browse" which opens up your files on your PC (I'm basing this on windows), select your pic and Bob is your parent's sibling.
-
Thanks Shillas, I'll give it a go
-
This needs a bit of background because the photo doesn't give much away. Had a great Bluesfest at Byron Bay this year and headed back to SA via Murwillumbah. Got a bit lost and stopped for a coffee. A space cadet in his bongo van wasn't looking where he was backing - the rest is history. Really fortunate, the only damage was to the LHS mirror and cover. The locals were fantastic helping me get Scarlett back on her feet.
So, name the town with the great locals.

The original caption was here's my :slvr13 parked next to a :wht11

It made sense in hindsight (plus I never realised how big it was in the original photo).
When travelling in the country always take plenty of water with you. So where is this?

South Australia

It was between Sofala & Parkes.
I provided the reply numbers containing the location quoted then added in the quotes with the locations.

Sofala, NSW
Parkes

No, not South Australia.

No, not New South Wales, and I agree with your point about the straight line because I was thinking those two locations at well.

Grampians, Victoria?🤓

Closer to the NSW border.

Not that close.

Lalbert is correct.
In Norwegian we say LÅL for lol, which is what Ernie is doing. Bert is, well, Bert. Together = Lalbert.
I often back up my ride to things and add the caption "can I tow it?". Over to you.
-
Thank you Bodo San, that was a lucky guess :grin. Where is this?🤓
-
I went there on the same trip I took the Lalbert photo. This is Tooleybuc, New South Wales.
-
Tooleybuc is correct :like. You are it 🤓
-
I recognized it straight away which was bizarre as I traversed it in the opposite direction making my way to the march RTE in Balranald. Mind you, I have a camera on the back of the bike so would have had that footage to look at.
Okay, where is this?

Not Largs Bay. It's a great place for a one night stand.

Encounter Bay?🤓

That is incorrect but J. Jonah Jameson likes your thinking. You mentioned bay so you're half right.

Moonta Bay perhaps? I reckon I've fished of that jetty a few times. :popcorn

Other side of the gulf.

Tumby bay?🤓

Arno Bay?

Tumby bay?🤓
That is correct. It hosted triple j's "one night stand" in 2011(?). You are it.

Thank you Bodo San 🤓, good clues again :like, although would be hard if you're not into triple j's type of music.
I hereby nominate Sir Shillas as the next it🤓
-
I'm not into triple j either. I had to google that info because I couldn't think of anything for Tumby Bay.
-
I thought Arno Bay was a good spot for a one night stand "Will I see you later?" "Ahh, no" :crackup
Where is this??
-
There aren't many hints in the photo, so I'll start with the Flinders Ranges, because of the craggy peaks in the background.
-
Mount Bold Road, Bradbury
-
Around Blinman.......one of the gorges?🤓
-
Parachilna gorge?🤓
-
From memory, not much bitumen at Parachilna. Could be the Flinders near Rawnsley Bluff or Mt Remarkable.
-
Love the Flinders references, but further south & more man made.

Angas Zinc Mine, Strathalbyn

This is a super game, for mine. JD is closer in his guess, but still not there. You've certainly been busy brewing answers.
-
Brukunga SA
-
Correct Michael. Brukunga - aboriginal name meaning "fire stone", a former pyrite mine, which was a key ingredient in superphosphate. A good bike riding route through there.
-
I have ridden through there, albeit many years ago. What street was this on? I couldn't find it on street view.
p.s.
I don't know many aboriginal words.

..... A good bike riding route through there.
Aren't they all good riding routes?

The only place I recall seeing one on top of a hill was at Tahara (and not the Tahara in Japan).

Hasn't been anything at Bolton to the NW for around 150 years, Manangatang is probably the closest town (pop. 479 in the 2011 census) to the SW has gone backwards and is not far behind.

Damn, Hell, Poop!!!
I've overlooked an obvious clue, there is a sealed road in the pic. And the sealed road is the Mallee Highway, so the pic is at the intersection of the Mallee Highway & Meridian Road.
Whew!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Manangatang is correct. The bitumen in my photo is indeed the Mallee Highway. Over to you.

I'd have been going to Wooli had I known about National Rallies in january because that's when leave applications have to be in. Unfortunately I didn't and my allocate leave starts the following weekend so I can't do it this year. I however hope to be at the Hall Gap RTE after that.

In the main street (the old highway) of a country town, a freeway now bypasses the town. I'd like the name of the town and the business in the old, double storey, red brick building in the background.
If you get the latter, it deserves a beer the next time we meet.

Anyway Kanyaka it is.
The pic is of the Mighty CB13 with Mrs W behind the bike, and the Kanyaka Homestead ruins in the far background. The Homestead must've been really something in it's "day". Above the Goyder Line, it flourished for a few years, but the drought (normal rainfall) came and the Homestead, like many other towns and settlements above the line, perished.
Sad story about the owner who drowned when the river bed behind the Homestead became a river.
Enough of that, your turn.

Sadly my Pic attachment has "failed security ...?????". I have zero tolerance for IT glitches, life is too short to get uptight about things I don't understand.
Therefore I hand over to the first non SA resident.

Near is a relative term. If around 400km is "near", then Yes; if it is not "near", then No.

Dookie is not correct. Refer to Langers' question and my response .........

Around 400km (may be via road, or as the crow flies) is important to keep in mind.

By the look of the vegetation etc somewhere on Yorke Peninsula would be my next guess (and I emphasize "guess")

Your previous photo was closer.

Well Bodo, I spent 20 years working and travelling Eyre Penn. but you've got me with this one - I have no idea (but feel I should have - that's what aging does for you I suppose).

Arno Bay?🤓

It's not Arno Bay. This town is on the Tod Highway.
-
No idea and I'm not getting anything from Google earth so I'll take a punt on Edillilie. The vegetation and soil type doesn't look right but Edillilie Engineers operate from here and perhaps they got bored one day.

No. Try the cross roads further north.

Last time I travelled the Tod Hwy was around 50-odd years ago when I lived at Whyalla. We used to go rabbiting in the Cleve/Lock/Kyancutta area, and memories are dim. I doubt the sign even existed then.

There is a SA registered car beside the bike, a sign that may be "Imperial Hotel" and what looks like a Foodland sign in the background over the top of the red brick building. I can't remember an Imperial Hotel but from the car rego and the possible Foodland sign, I reckon it may be in SA.
-
That yellow sign is a bakery sign, Pete. I have had quite a few stops there during my travels as did that SA registered car.
The Imperial sign is not a hotel, and the business therein has since closed down.The band rotunda is behind and to the left of the cameraperson.

Four reasons this isn't Woods Point:
1. The background buildings are in better nick than anything I remember in Woods Point.
2. There is mown grass in the right foreground, again nothing like that in WP.
3. The terrain is flat, relative to WP.
4. The sky is blue. Whilst I conceive that one at least one day a year there won't be any clouds in WP, I have yet to be there on that day.

It has to be SA because of the Vili's sandwich (pie) board. Somewhere dry and hot because of the evaporative air conditioner and beige screen on the house on the RHS. Believe it or not there are some 68 local Govt Council areas in little old SA so the bin lids don't help (just think of 68 CEO's, Deputy CEO's, a multitude of Directors, Works Managers and who knows how many finger painters to be paid before a single bin is emptied or pot hole fixed - but I digress) The very little of the surrounds in the picture is suggestive of the Riverland (to me), but it could also be EP or the mid-North or southern Mallee. Basically what I'm saying is I have NFI (No Flamin' Idea) without a hint.

In light of the observations re SA odor, I'd like to handball to either a Sandgroper or BananaBender (and I haven't been out much of late and don't have a suitable photo). If there are no takers within 48hours then its open slather to the usual suspects.

I wasn't sure about the name so I checked the map and found you are correct but I don't even to many locals would know these days. Most only go over for either fishing and launching a boat.

"... by 1866 the town was described as a regional centre ‘in the midst of a fine agricultural district, where wheat, peas, and potatoes are largely grown’ (South Australia by the way - within a hundred kilometres of Adelaide, as the Crow flies - but we don't mention the Crows here at the moment).

That pic could be anywhere Garry, and I'm not sure if the terms ICONIC or EASILY INDENTIFIABLE could be applied. Methinks it might be time to remind people of the idea of the challenge, so I repost post #1 in this thread.
ok .... a new game.
the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable ......

Methinks more than I couldlook at the originalpost. If I put up the next photo without the truck its too easy. And Williamson you will pick this in a flash if you look carefully.

You are correct (with respect to the locale of my pic), but incorrect IMO, if you are referring to the friendly grocer not being friendly. I have been there a few times, always found 'em friendly.
This morning's post was in haste when (on the small type on the iPhone) I incorrectly read you response as "correct", so I withdrew my post.

Apologies, I can't get to my computer for a couple of days so I will leave it to Sir Shillas to take over. While we are waiting perhaps you can look at this picture and pick the marque and model (they are often found in this pose) and guess the problem.

Thanks Langers, before I saw the picture my guess was a Hardly, but maybe a fuel pump issue?
On the Long Valley Road between Wistow & Strathalbyn?
-
Duke or Trumpet?🤓
-
No to all responses. There is a body of water to the right of the picture. The location is somewhere on the Fleurieu Penn.

Tooperang?

No sir, a further hint, the motorcycle is facing North (ish). Sadly, like the ST, this model of motorcycle is no longer made.

No longer made, or no longer sold is AUS?
My guess is a Triumph Trophy, and if it's a Triumph, the problem could be anything in a wide range of electrical issues.

Electrical problem: Yes, a ground wire had corroded and separated from the ECU but this wasn't found until after the bike was flat topped home and the Tupperware was removed. It is not a British or Japanese bike. With Staintune pipes it has a note to die for. Pretty sure it is no longer made.
-
CF Moto?🤓
-
Not CF Moto.
Apologies to Williamson, it would appear its production is ongoing (at least until 2017) but no longer sold in Australia.
It is shaft drive.
-
Apologies, I can't get to my computer for a couple of days so I will leave it to Sir Shillas to take over. While we are waiting perhaps you can look at this picture and pick the marque and model (they are often found in this pose) and guess the problem.
Looks like the location is here on the South Road near Myponga Reservoir https://goo.gl/maps/HEcuSVjZnVv but I can't pick the bike.
-
Well done Alan - spot on with the location, we were riding back from Cape Jervois when Rob's bike just cut out without prior warning.
The final clue is the manufacturer has been around longer than most.
-
No British..no Japanese..no Chinese..been around long time..got to be Italian..no Duke, Cagiva?🤓

Very close JD. It's time to get back on track with a Where is this pic.
The motorcycle is a Moto Guzzi Norge. In 2016 I rode my Honda VT750 to Byron Bay (for the Bluesfest) accompanied by Rob on his Guzzi Norge. It didn't miss a beat and at the end of each day Rob was as fit and fresh as when he started in the morning, unlike me. My interest in sports touring motorcycles was born. 3 months later I bought the ST1300 and haven't looked back - although after this year's ride to Byron Bay and experiencing the continuing deterioration of the country roads I have been seriously considering moving over to something like the Suzuki V-Strom 1000. I'm going to take the ST to a suspension specialist first. If nothing can be done to improve the suspension to give a more comfortable ride (mainly the front forks) on the goat tracks we call major country roads, I'm afraid that I'll start looking in earnest, my wrists,elbows, neck and back aren't what they used to be.
Over to you Sir Shillas

They are leather/vinyl covers over the crash bars, which protect the rider's legs from the wind and rain. Fish only puts them on for the long trips.

https://goo.gl/maps/atvojjMNu3G2 (https://goo.gl/maps/atvojjMNu3G2)
The Wild Brumby Distillery is a beautiful spot at Crackenback, and well worth a visit if you are in the area. We sat on their verandah and had a delicious platter of local produce washed down with some very tasty non-alcoholic beer. They grow their own raspberries for the schnapps, and the expansive garden is decorated with beautiful steel garden art made from all manner of old farm bits and bobs. I was in my element.....
-
So who won da money?🤓
-
:think1 Well JD got the location, with Pete's advice Biggles got the horse at full gallop. Crackenback came up with brumbies & image search found the last pieve of the puzzle.
With that, was easy enough to work out.
And as I think I'm short on pics, I'll be bold and nominate Biggles to open up the field a bit from the usual suspects :grin

Gayndah
Bingo! It was going to be identified eventually. I thought it would go off very quickly, because the only towns between Eidsvold and Mt Perry of the size in the photo are Mundubbera and Gayndah.
The baob is actually on the Lookout to the south of the town. It's a fair climb but well worth the effort.
It's a very nice town with the huge Burnett River bed right next to it. I say "bed" because the river isn't much most of the time, but is massive when in flood with an extraordinarily high bridge over it.
-
I've passed a lot of rivers like that.

..... That's pretty obscure.....

I agree. IMHO, I think we need to get back to the rules (from post #1 - in this thread):
ok .... a new game.
the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable ....
Alas, standards have slipped. We have overlooked the ST requirement, although perhaps the term steed is pretty broad, and I better not be too critical in this aspect because I have used pics of my CB instead of the ST, but at least they were pics of a HONDA.
Mmmmm ........ I might loose this argument, as I suspect we will see some 'where's this' pic with a shiney white BMW in the near future.
-
We have overlooked the ST requirement
I apologize.
-
Obscure maybe but Bodo got it. Glengarry it is. Was it the date that made it easy
-
Where was the date?
I'll nominate Williamson for the next one due to being unable to fulfil the ST requirement.
-
I took the ST to refer to Sports Tourer - to be honest, I couldn't give a rats what bike manufacturer was featured. If we are going to insist on the Honda ST then the number of participants will dwindle over time (Thank you Mr Honda - NOT) and we will miss out on some very challenging photos.

Part of the road was re-routed in 1998, so I'd call the old route the "old road". There's plenty of hints to work on for this highly visible and iconic landmark.

It would be the original toll building at Glen Osmond. An easy one for the locals. I was nearly a local once.
I thought it was in a service lane type of thing but google says its in the middle of the road these days.

There ya go!... many years ago, the Govt
told tolled everybody to use this road, but there wasnt much option. I hinted earlier about GO (Glen Osmond)

Yay! This is in the middle of the road at the bottom of the South Eastern Freeway, the main road into Adelaide from Melbourne, and right on the edge of the metro area. See https://goo.gl/maps/pPdN2dD6QQ32 for the precise location. In the 1800s a toll was levied for use of the road, which was collected at this location. The Old Toll House is a very well know landmark. Over to you Ppopeye :thumb

Speaking about the old road, (Devils elbow, Eagle on the Hill) mid to late 6o's, friends and myself used to sit in my Cooper S and wail for a VW beetle to start the hill climb. we would scoot ahead, and then slow down until the beetle had to drop back to 3rd gear, and then we would shoot off up the hill.
Poor beetle would be stuck in 3rd gear as they didnt have enough grunt to get into 4th again.

Hint No. 1
This war memorial is located in a town, which according to Wikipedia, was on the original Sydney to Melbourne (or could be the Melbourne to Sydney) Road. Wiki did not refer to the road as the Hume Highway, so I suspect it preceded the naming of the road as a highway - so it must be an old town. And I suppose it narrows it down to NSW or VIC.

The inscription on the plague tell us that it's a memorial to some local lads killed in 1901 and 1902, and Googling the names revealed that this was in the Boer War. From memory, this memorial (but it may have been one of many others on similar small town memorials), listed those that served and fell in WW1. Too often, the same surname is listed multiple times, probably meaning one family has lost two or three or more sons.
Very sad.

Broken Hill railway station
:think1 that's a long way from a Victorian visitor information centre :-[
Never said it was a Victorian VIC, they're everywhere.
I knew Bodø would get it, Broken Hill it is.
My initial thought was it was Broken Hill, but I couldn't see the big rock in the background and Shillas hasn't been to New South Wales. My attention turned to the Overlander and where it stops in the vicinity of the Halls Gap RTE, ie. Ararat, Stawell and Horsham. I've never been to Horsham station but also thought the VIC clue was a red herring (even if I didn't know what it stood for). That made me think it must be Keswick interstate railway station. Then at work I was driving along and suddenly it occurred to me Shillas did in fact go to Wooli so Broken Hill was a possibility so confirmed with my own photos I took there.

Not many inland waters have jetties that long. I'd be guessing coastal. I suppose it could be a bridge, but still looks coastal.

Approx. 300km ride from there. But only around 60km as the crow flies.

Wanaka?🤓
Getting closer, only a ~70km ride, or 45km as the crow flies. This road, err track (although the New Zealanders call it a road) featured in a Ride Report a while back.
-
If you guys can't guess this one, we might need to skip to the next one.
In the meantime, the ride / drive from Wanaka to the photo point is across the Crown Range, along the Crown Range Road (who wouda thunk that?).
Extract from the website: the Crown Range lies between Queenstown and Wanaka. The road over the range, known as the Crown Range Road, is the highest main road in New Zealand. It reaches an altitude of 1,121 metres, which does bring challenges. In winter, the road is often covered in snow and ice, making for very difficult driving conditions. https://www.newzealand.com/au/feature/the-crown-range/ (https://www.newzealand.com/au/feature/the-crown-range/)
Considering the height of some of the NZ peaks relative to AUS peaks, the Crown Range ain't very high road at all, eg. the Great Alpine Road rises to an altitude of 1,840 m.

The left pannier correctly mounted (not in a gully on the side of the road) is a clue. It means the pic was taken before 8:00am last Saturday.

Biggles, that is exactly what I thought, but then I decided to consult Dr Google and apparently Strawboard is (or was) produced as a building product. There is quite an interesting story here in relation to the Broadford boiler. I won't go political, but rather allow others to form their own view about unions.

Don't go political. Brock will remove the posts. :grin

If you include the council area (which that map is) you can say it's a large area but the town itself is just a few square kms.
This is all off topic I should think.

Bendoc Hotel, Bendoc VIC.
Good skills JD.
The pic was taken on the "B" Tour, Xmas - New Year 2010. The idea was to go through as many B towns or localities as I could, from memory there was:
- Berwick
- Beaconsville
- Bunyip
- Boisdale
- Briagalong
- Bengworden
- Bairndale
- Bruthen
- Buchan
- Bet Belong
- Bemboka
- Bombala
- Bredbo
- Burra NSW
- Batemans Bay
- Bungendore
- Braidwood
- Batemans Bay
- Batehaven
- Bodalla
- Bega - after that we spent a few nights at Tathra, and the headed .....
- Back Home
So JD, over to you for the next pic.
Bodo, another challenge for you - well, anyone really, but I think Bodo will be first.

Thank you Sir. Where Is This? Some may wish to refrain :thumb

Edit: only just saw the 'refrain' request.

So many stones... so it's not Victoria! :rofl

Shoulda changed the title, "Gaol Ruins" is a dead giveaway. A simple Google search with some key words tells me this is Robe SA. I have not been to Robe (that I recall) in 45 years of travelling. Any time travelling the "coast" road between Melbourne and Adelaide, we have stuck to the Princes Highway.

Robe is correct ✔️ You are it.

Perhaps a little obscure, but I'll provide some clues - if or when needed.

Alvie, Victoria

Less luggage, more lovey dovey, pillion and rider looking fresh ...a day trip perhaps...? Vic? You are most probably correct Bodo San
-
Alvie, Victoria
Some appearance of similar country, but nope! An 18 hour ride from Alvie (by bicycle, according to Google).

Nope again. I see that Bonnie Doon is about an 18 hour bicycle ride from Alvie, but the pic is not at either location.

We normally don't get a long that section of the Jamestown to Orroroo road but it is mainly local traffic and was ideal for Heather during her L plate phase

History
Edit
Very little has been recorded of the original inhabitants of the area. The few records available are reports of conflict. In the summer of 1837-38 a band of aborigines attacked the lower station of the Clyde Company (near Lullote) with two aborigines being killed and another injured and in 1839 George Russell reported natives sheep duffing.[3]
It has been speculated that the first European to arrive in Inverleigh was William Buckley,[4] but the first European known to have visited Inverleigh was the surveyor J.H. Wedge who arrived in 1835, probably naming the Leigh River after his Tasmanian farm 'Leighlands'.

Having known William Buckley had inhabited the Bellarine Peninsula and environs, that clue gave it to me, and then it was only a matter of time.

Lovely building. More recent photo, not the mighty CB.
As a side note, always found it interesting that Honda did a range of CBs from 125cc (even lower?) up to 1300? Be like a 1L commodore vs a 5 litre one. In name only.

Yes. A well preserved and / or restored example of an 1880's house. This one is in regional Victoria within 200km of Melbourne. Not long before this pic was taken it changed hands for a very high six figure sum. A property search tells me it changed hands in 2001 for $65,000. If it was in Melbourne, I think it would have fetched at least $3M in 2017/18.
Here's some more pics:

When it was on the market, I thought it would be a good buy, six bedrooms and three bath rooms, but no garage or carport. I should've made further enquiries.

Be like a 1L commodore vs a 5 litre one. In name only.
I don't remember a 1L Commodore. The smallest I remember was a 4 cylinder 1900cc Starfire Four. We had a station wagon version on the work fleet, a VH series from memory, must've been around 1980. I booked it for a country trip, Melbourne to Orbost for a coupla days.
The guys at the office who thought they knew more .about cars than me said not to take it, it was a shyte heap with no power and I would regret my vehicle choice for this quick trip.
Took the car home on the evening before the trip, engine revved (sort of) freely, up and down the five speed gear box, Mmmmm ...... this goes okay. A few stop start meetings at towns along the South Gippsland Highway through the morning, after lunch I headed from Yarram to Sale into a roaring north wind. The Commodore wouldn't hold 5th gear without loosing speed, 4th gear was hold speed but it was flat out at 130km/h.
I never booked the 4 cylinder Commodore again.
-
Well plenty of room for garage etc in the house.
I know there was never a 1litre commodore, point being how there can be such a divergence in style & capacity, yet still given same name.

A bit like the best selling car in the world.
This was for many years the Model T Ford, which from my perspective, ie. they all looked the same, was probably easy to accept. Someone more knowledgeable (read older) will correct me, aye Bill?
Same for the VW Beetle.
But now (and I just checked) it's the Toyota Corolla with 1.02 million sold. I don't find this credible as, IMHO, the only similarities between a 1967 model and a 2019 model is Corolla.

They even pre-dated me by a couple of years. But I recall when I was knee-high having a hand in helping my father work on our Willys Whippet out in Cracow. He'd been working on the engine and as the key offsider I was entrusted with holding tools. In my enthusiasm for the role I poked the tine of a file through the radiator. I don't recall the details of my employment after that...

This one of the largest ANZAC memorials that I know of, if you Googled "ANZAC", I'm sure you would see many more, it's just a matter of finding and identifying this one.

The town is Seymour, VIC but as this is a "military" town, there are a number of war memorials in and around the town, so extra points given for the location. Hint is in post from June 19, 2019, 09:51:59 PM ...........

Seymour War Memorial
The War Memorial commemorates those who have served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved.
The Memorial Cairn was erected in ANZAC Avenue in 1986 to replace the original World War One Avenue of Honour which was planted in 1917. The trees were removed in 1982 due to road widening.

ANZAC Avenue is approx. 2.5km in length. There are probably longer "ANZAC" avenues, highways, roads or streets, etc.. so there may be even larger ANZAC memorials.
Looks like Bodo did a Steven Bradbury on you guys.

It's his.

Thanks Bodø
There is an Anzac Ave near where I live. It runs from the roundabout at Redcliffe to the Roundabout at Petrie. Approx. 19 km long.
Along the route are various Army, Navy and Air Force Memorials as well as a section at Mango Hill lined with Mango Trees.
Where is this?

Well done Bodo, you never cease to amaze me with your ability to identify locations. It is indeed the Mt Welcome Lookout at Roeburne. I thought I might have stumped you with this one, as it's well off the main road and on top of a hill.

The iconic location will be very, very, very hard to pick without some clues, these will come fast and often, and I'll start with one.
1st Clue:
The tall timber picket fence on the opposite side of the road is the property boundary fence of an iconic football ground.
Extra points for make, series & model of vehicles.
-
Real football or clayton's football?
-

No more than 17 guesses needed.

Princess Park
Carlton
(http://www.blueseum.org/image39486)

Extra points for make, series & model of vehicles.
Hard to pick The Holden Panel Van Sin Bin from this end. It could be ones any of the Belmont/Kingswood HQ, HJ, HX or the final WB.
-
Princess Park
Carlton
Correct code, but not that location.
...... Holden Panel Van Sin Bin ...... Belmont ..... HQ ......

And Suzuki TS185, circa 1973?
:thumbs
Victoria Park Collingwood?
Victoria Park, Abbotsford :grin
Neither.
As to whether Victoria Park was / is in Collingwood or Abbotsford, in my view an argument could be mounted to indicate that you are both correct.
When the pic was taken in 1975, before the Council amalgamtions in the 1990's, Vic Park was in the Municipal District of the City of Collingwood, in the suburb of Abbotsford.
Clue 3:
Does anyone remember a petrol advertisement on the TV in the mid 70's that featured two characters touring Australia in their trusty Holden ute? The characters' names were Brewster and Franklin, one of those names could be a key to identifying this iconic football ground.
-
I'm guessing Windy Hill, Essendon, home of the Bombers.
-
I'm guessing Windy Hill, Essendon, home of the Bombers.
Well, you are correct.
:thumbs
The pic is taken out the front of the family home at 40 Brewster Street, Essendon, with football ground over the road. Before Brewster Street, we lived in Napier Street, on the other side of the footy ground. Despite living so close to the Bomber's home ground for 25 years, I follow Footscray / Western Bulldogs.
You're IT Langers.

The best I can work out is that it's an Art Studio, unless the tree foliage is covering some of the sign and then it could be a Fart Studio. So now that we know what it is or could be, but I don't know where it is.
But that's up to JD, or others, as I've done my part.

The hints suggest Poochera (not Alan's, I was never any good at doing cryptic crosswords).
I'm not much good at cryptic either but I did search for a "how to"
Poochera is correct
It is yours
The clue "coop"over = pooc; over is the same as return
Before means the first clue goes before the second.
The Greek goddess is "Hera" from a search using those letters; clue = "a" after "her" which gives "hera"
pooc is before hera = Poochera

Not Halls Gap. Given that the building in the background gives little away, I'll give an early clue). The black bike is a Yamaha MT03, bought for Julie to get back into riding after a 40 year break. This ride was her first outing. Actually its been her only outing in 10 months. I've done the right thing by Julie & the bike and taken it out occasionally. o:)

Sure. Back on Alan's photo, neither the ant nor the carriage are in the same place as they were anymore. The ant has been moved to the property next door and bolted down. It needs a dab of paint but has a sign about dinosaur ants behind it. The carriage has fared worse. It's well away from the roadhouse entrance and highway and left to rot in the bush.
-
Yes, like many little towns on EP, with farm consolidation and loss of population, they die a slow death. Pretty sad really.
-
Cadell SA?
-
Not Cadell. This place was very popular in the 30's and 40's for the genteel folk of Adelaide to catch a train to in summer, to escape the heat on the weekend.

Not Cadell. This place was very popular in the 30's and 40's for the genteel folk of Adelaide to catch a train to in summer, to escape the heat on the weekend. Unfortunately that rail service no longer exists, although trains still travel past the old station (goods trains and occasionally The Overland).

Leo, yes a brilliant skit, very innovative theme, very very clever delivery. Is / was it only the Two Ronnies that could deliver it? I don't think there are any current comedians that could hold a candle (four candles, seen that one?) to them.
Jimmy Carr is very good, but crude. I wonder how good he would be without the language?

Hey Bethany, whisky tango foxtrot, how the heck are we supposed to pick that one? We seem to have slipped along way from iconic ........... from post #1 the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic .

I've experienced the ghost there a few times. Believed to be a woman who died giving birth. Very helpful and nice.

You are correct, it's not in Hahndorf, at least not unless Hahndorf extends approx. 550km into Victoria.
Whether or not it's iconic is dependent on one's perspective.

Bakery Hill
No! I initially thought you were closest, but it was the Bakery at Wesley Hill that I lunched at prior to riding and taking the pic.
I have also plotted all of the nominations on a map, it is actually Mount Egerton and Bakery Hill that are closer than St Arnaud and Wedderburn, by about 50km.

Fryerstown it is. I removed "Boot Manufacturer" from the original pic as a Google search would have found it quite easily.
Bakery Hill, I have not been to the bakery there, don't even if there is one these days, but the bakery at Wesley Hill is worth a visit. Not too aspiring or inviting from the outside, but their pies are nice inside.
Anyway, your turn BG.

JD, yes, I think we had ALL be asleep.
Former CFA training facility at Fiskville.
Michael, that is correct. A good pick for a crow eater, I'm surprised you picked it, rather than a Victorian. How did you do that?
Anyway, over to you.
-
Zoomed in on the photo, saw the CFA logo, looked more like a training facility than a station, quick google & image result, verified with Streetview.
I note that it is now closed due to a cancer cluster from chemical uses etc.
Will see what I have, I may need to pass on it.

Go for it.

I don't do cryptic so I'll wait for a more lateral thinker to piece it together.

Whew!!! I'll find a pic later. In the meantime, as there was talk about eggs and beating, what's the difference between an egg and a beetroot?

The Japanese will add an egg to anything whereas if you give them a hamburger with beetroot in that's the first thing they dig out after taking one bite.

It was funny doing tour guiding for Japanese tourists in Carins. We'd take a big group of them somewhere lunch was a hamburger and in unison they'd take a big bite, put it down, open it up, take out the purple stuuf, close it up and finish eating it.

Well done Michael, I would never have got it. I don't follow the horses. Speaking of horses, I find it rather odd that we have at least two abattoirs in Australia that kill horses for human consumption but the meat product is all exported - it seems we are not allowed to access the product. We are a country of oddball rules.

JD, if you dig deeper, you'll find more interesting stuff about the pros and cons, for and against discussion, and the rivalry between QLD & NSW supporters of the road.
It's also a 'bucket list' road, as are many in the Border Ranges area.

Took a bit to find it Bodo - I ended up Googling Vitera silo locations and because I didn't know where on earth Apamurra was, it was the first one I checked out.
OK, where is this (and perhaps our Croweater members can leave it for 24 hours, it's a bit easy if you know (like everything I guess)):

19 Onkaparinga rd. Mt. Torrens. SA.

Spot on JD, so over to you. Apparently it is one of StinkyPete's Big things pictures and may be one of Bodo's as well.

Thank you Langers. Anyone, please post Where is This pic to keep game rolling :like

Okay, where's this?

Quick, but no cigar .......
Being isolated has turned me into a (more) pedantic prick, so I will say that whilst the above answer is close, it's not as close, or precise, as it could /should be. After all memorials are more likely to be outside other types of clubs.

Geeveston RSL, in Tasmania

It's the memorial located in the middle of Memorial Drive...outside the Geeveston Ex Servicemen & Women's Club & opposite the Bowls Club car park..

Covid19 has a lot to answer for.

Oh, here's a bit of trivia....see that hill on the right, above the pines? I lived right on top of that hill for about 13-14 years... :beer

Thank you ruSTnutz. Where is This?

Old Mundulla, South Australia.

Old Mundulla is incorrect ✖️ . Sorry about the pic.

Good point Mark, but ..... (and there is often a big hairy butt) ......
In post, #4475 my intent was to point out that the War Memorial was located adjacent to the RSL, rather than the Bowls Club. In this case .....
That would be the memorial outside the Geeveston Bowls Club, in Tasmania....
..... Russell had provide too much information, I probably would have accepted just Geeveston as the anwser.
And I still reckon RSL is more accurate than Bowls Club, as you will see from this aerial pic which shows the RSL is almost all within a 50m radius from the War Memorial, whereas the Bowls Club (building) is outisde 50m.

But I take my guess as Morgan as being correct, so I'll now see if I can workout where in Morgan, before anyone else does.
-
Personally with the pictures I post I want a locality. If was North West Bend I wouldn't accept Morgan.

So the bowling green & car park of the bowls club isn't part of the bowls club??? :whistle
That's probably news to them...
And being a bit pedantic myself...The building nearest the memorial is actually the Geeveston Ex-Servicemen's & Women's Club...according to the sign on the building... :grin

Your clue might suggest Wilcannia NSW, but I can't pinpoint the exact location. :think1

Wilcannia is incorrect ✔️. This is in South AustraliAustralia but you are on the right track with the name of the place although you went for water instead of mud :thumb
-
Gotcha! Meningie Museum, 3 Fiebig, Rd Meningie. Meningie is an aboriginal word meaning "Mud".
-
Meningie is correct ✔️, you are it :thumbsup

I haven't played this for a while, and had to dig into the archive. Where is this?

Jugiong NSW?

Meningie is correct ✔️, you are it :thumbsup
Just Peter should have known this. I hear he's fluent in aborinal languages.
-
Jugiong NSW?
Oh for goodness sake!!! How on earth did you guess that so quick, as it seemed to me a pretty challenging location.
It is of course the Jugiong Rest Area in NSW and just off the Hume Highway north of Gundagai.
-
Jugiong is usually the first stop on return trips from Sydney so the landscape looked familiar, but it was a lucky guess :like

Yep! We bought the Beemer nearly two years ago. The photo was taken when Chris and I toured parts of the Great Divide with a three other friends/couples who were all on Beemers by coincidence, but not part of any club.

Corner of Bowen Street and Riddoch Highway, Penola SA. :hatwave

Waterloo Bay, Elliston, South Australia

It's one of my best memories from my inaugural Eyre Peninsula trip of 2015. So where is this?
(http://www.imghostr.net/images/2020/04/17/fbe3a8fa21fb6d6d198ebc8c9f28d9d7.jpg)

That would be the Lufra Hotel & Apartments just across from the Tessellated Pavement Track at Eaglehawk Neck in Tasmania...

Okay JD, guess I had better give everyone a clue. :wink1
It's not in South Gippsland, its actually in Tasmania... :popcorn

Hellyer Gorge?

Queenstown.

Somewhere between Campbelltown and Lake Leake?

Dover

Nope...on both counts :-(((

Out of the two, you're the closest, Bodø :thumb
-
There really ins't much to go on so net guess:
Cygnet
-
Who knows, maybe I have ridden across it. I haven't got to watching Tassie videos yet. I'm currently looking at the trip to Wilsons Promonotory the day before sailing across.
-
It's not Cygnet... :-(((
-
Woodstock
-
It's not Woodstock... :grin
Hmm, you're making me thirsty now... :beer
-
I am wondering if that is a hint.
Hayes?
-
The only hint was...it's your shout for a Woodstock bourbon... :rofl
Sorry Bodø, I think I sent you off on a tangent! :-[
Oh and it's not Hayes...you were closer with the other guesses. :thumbs
-
Police Point.
Remember the last time you put me through this my comeback photo was from Japan. :angry-old-man-smiley-emoticon
-
Hey, I'm enjoying this tour around Tassie... :rofl
It's been a while since I last visited Police Point, but no, that's not it...
Hmm, maybe I should offer up a clue??
Okay, there's a popular tourist attraction not so far away... :popcorn

Sweet dreams, Bodø... 8)

Got up to go to the bathroom.
Brooks Bay
-
It's not Brooks Bay! :-(((
You're a bit too far south now...
-
It can't be Cairns Bay because that's east so it must be Surges Bay.
-
It's neither of those... :-(((
You need to move away from the sea, it's inland.
Oh, and I left some clues in a couple of my replies yesterday...I guess they may have been a bit to subtle. :whistle
-
I was too busy making a word to look at/for clues.
-
Hartz?
I can't think of anything else as I'm at work.

It's not Hartz, but you're now looking in the right area as such... :thumb

Tahune Air Walk

Very close, Brookester... :thumb
-
Arve Loop forest reserve

Getting closer...but no cigar! :grin
-
Arve Rd at Tahune Adventures crossing the Huon River

It's not the Tahune Adventures crossing but you do have the right road... :fp
Like Bodø you're getting closer, Brookester! :popcorn
-
Like me do you look for a locality?
Southwest
-
Found it. It's the Arve River Camping and Picnic Area, Geeveston.
I am pretty sure I said Geeveston.
-
Yay!!!!!! Well done... :beer
When you said Geeveston I did consider it but as the camping & picnic area is around 15k's away I really didn't think it was close enough.
I reckon you can blame Michael, it was his fault we've started to get so "pedantic" in this thread! :crackup
Here's your prize, you've earn't it...enjoy!!!
:chocolate-box-smiley-emoticon
-
I'll nominate Brookester (with an E) for the next one.
-
I thought he was gonna snatch the victory off you for a while... :whistle
-
I think I looked at just about every river, rivulet (never heard that word before going to Tassie last year), creek crossing in google streetview in that area whilst throwing out those other towns yesterday but couldn't match the bridge. Oh, and that boulder in your picture isn't in streetview.
-
Bloody hooligans must have moved it... :whistle
It's funny, I actually had to use Street View myself to find out exactly where it was.
My memory isn't as good as it use to be...but in my defence the photo was taken probably 6 years ago... lol
-
Thanks for tha ride :like
-
That road is one more to add to my list should I get to Tassie again.
-
It's worth the ride, Bodø...and it's worth paying the Tuhune Forest Air Walk a visit which is what I did on that particular day.
I remember by the time I arrived back in Glenorchy I was absolutely frozen. I remember pulling up at traffic lights in Hobart and struggling to put my foot down as I came to a stop, I was that cold!... :o
-
Only photo I could find for now...
-
Thanks for tha ride :like
Are you ready for a similar trip around Queensland? 🤣🤣🤣
-
I reckon you can blame Michael, it was his fault we've started to get so "pedantic" in this thread! :crackup
Would I pedantic in saying it's not south of Geeveston? If anything it's west.

A combination of three methods.
- Been there before, but that was back in the 70's, don't remember the building (probably wasn't built then) but the vegetation looked familar, but in reality it's the same in much of FNQ.
- Did some Googling.
- And, I have an App on my iPhone which enables me to take a pic of something, it will then search the intenet for similar pics. It doesn't always work, but when it does I think that's now a game changer.
I'll be back shortly with a pic.

Whilst by guessing ...
Out in the middle of no-where, Otago, New Zealand?
... does provide more words, it does not provide any more detail re. the location than Bodo. So like my response to Bodo, more detail required, please.
Now without really wanting to back track and go back to the first post in this thread, but I will ...
... the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable and the person who guesses correctly gets to either post a photo themselves OR nominate someone to post a photo...
... and now go out on a limb and say that this location is something iconic - BTW there's nothing cryptic in that.

Shoot enough arrows in the air, enough darts at the dart board, you're likely to hit it eventually.
Cryptic clue - he was marooned on an island, not in a deep valley.

Skippers (canyon)

The second one reminds me of one in northern England, but I can't recall where. The timber structure over the arch is quite distinctive.
May be similar, but neither are in TAS or UK.
Here's a hint, Skippers Canyon (try without Googling):

You beat me to it, Bodø :thumbs

He' posted pictures from this area before so I knew it was Otago immediately, but the clue gave it away. As for Te Aroha, I was taking the mickey.
-
Skippers (canyon)
Skippers Canyon it is, over to you Bodo.
More info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skippers_Canyon
IMO, any trip to the South Island, must include a visit to Queenstown, and then Skippers Canyon. If you are in a rental, you may not have insurance cover. It might be worthwhile checking before you take a dirt bike or dual sport bike as well. We had Vstroms, and paid a bit extra for dirt road cover.

Hey! We had beautiful blue skies today.... :grin
Perfect bike weather, in fact I went shopping on the bike today...twice!!! :rofl
-
Perhaps a clue is in order? Are we looking at something "iconic" or something "easily identifiable" as suggested in the first post establishing this thread?
-
Okay, Clue...it's in Victoria...and I believe it's fairly iconic, well at least with the people that live in the town where it's situated. :whistle
Actually, it's probably more historic than iconic as it was built in the late 1800's...
-
No takers? :think1
Okay, I'll narrow things down a bit more...it's in Gippsland.
-
I'm afraid the photo is so nondescript, my gut feel is, you could give the town and street and it still could be touch and go as to whether anyone will get it.
-
I guess you could say that about many of the previous pics too! Wot thuh
As can be seen in the photo, the building is built from stone, surely that should help as, unlike South Oz, there's not that many of those in Gippsland. :||||
At the end of the day no-one has even taken a stab...
-
I guess you could say that about many of the previous pics too!
Well, surely you couldn't say that about my quality pics of iconic places.
As can be seen in the photo, the building is built from stone, surely that should help .....
The stone wasn't that obvious to me, until you mentioned it, so I enlarged and lightened the pic.
At the end of the day no-one has even taken a stab...
And with those clues, I'll guess Fieldstone House at Nerim North.

Well, surely you couldn't say that about my quality pics of iconic places.
Ummm, I probably could...lol....except they have mysteriously disappeared so I can't check... :p
Have you been reorganising Photobucket??? :whistle
The stone wasn't that obvious to me, until you mentioned it, so I enlarged and lightened the pic.
A simple click on the pic will enlarge it... :grin
And with those clues, I'll guess Fieldstone House at Nerim North.
Good try but no cigar, Michael! :thumb
-
Have you been reorganising Photobucket??? :whistle
No, but I think Photobucket has been re-organising Photobucket.
How about Sale, VIC?
-
I hate photobucket! :||||
I used it for years when it was free but once they got greedy I gave them a miss.
There's plenty of free hosting out there so why pay, I reckon. :grin
As for Sale? Nice place.... :whistle
Oh, you're wanting to know if it's there?
It's not... :-(((
-
How about another hint. I'm playing but have no idea!
-
Kurumburra rail station.
-
How about another hint. I'm playing but have no idea!
It's in the Latrobe Valley... >:()
-
Kurumburra rail station.
It's not the Korumburra Railway Station, Denis... :-(((
Incidentally, that station is built from red brick... https://tinyurl.com/y86nmr64
-
I think it is the Boolarra Community Hotel.
-
Close, but no cigar, Rex... :-(((
-
Boolarra Club Hotel.
-
Hmmm...
I'm struggling to even find that hotel in Boolarra, do you have an address?
-
The Old Pub or the Old Boolarra Pub, built in 1884. 20A Duke Street Boolarra.
-
Different color roof.
-
The original address, which I changed a few minutes later, is the address of the Community Hotel. This address current is the address of the actual location the photo was taken - the Old Pub.
https://australianimage.com.au/life-behind-bars-part-9/
-
That looks like it.
-
You've got it, Langers... :thumbs
That's what I was trying to clarify with Rex.
Some of the info out there is a bit vague...I've seen a community pub photo with what looks like "Club" in it's signage.
I also saw some mention of the "Club Hotel" mixed in with info on the Old Pub, hence a bit of confusion as to which one Rex was actually looking at.
Anyways, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter as my bike was parked outside what was The Old Pub Coffee House & Eatery in Duke Street..
I guess you're it... :thumb
-
I'll handball it back to Aussiexs (Rex) - without him getting the town I'd still be floundering in the dark.
Cheers ... Mark

That's jolly decent of you, Mark... :clap
You're it, Rex! :grin

Thanks or your help. This one is easy!

Glenthompson, Vic.

Correct and very fast. Over to you.

Thank you Sir Rex. Where is This?
-
Alfred Terrace Streaky Bay - the building on the left is the pub.
-
Streaky Bay is correct ✔️. You are It :clap
-
Shouldn't be too hard
-
That would be the Bischoff Hotel in Waratah, Tasmania...
-
Correct Rusty, back to you.
-
Thanks Mark...now to find a pic! >:()
-
Okay, I found this one...Hopefully it's not too hard! :popcorn

It's in Victoria...

I see you're between a rock and... 🤣

Okay, I found this one...Hopefully it's not too hard! :popcorn

Blue Rock Dam.

But, but, but the rock isn't blue and there's no dam in sight... :rofl
Good try though... :thumb
-
Still too hard? >:()
Okay, I'll narrow things down a bit more...
It's in South Gippsland!

Thanks

Still searching

Are you searching for roadside rocks? :popcorn

is that a hint?

Not really, Rex...but it is roadside & it's a rock... :whistle

Still searching!

Goodo! Hope you can find it, Rex... :thumb

I reckon it's time for a hint!

Okay...it has something in common with a beach near Phillip Island but it's actually not located near the beach... Wot thuh
-
Okay...it has something in common with a beach near Phillip Island but it's actually not located near the beach... Wot thuh
Well, I'm guessing Woolamai (inland, not Woolamai Beach).
Last time we were discussing pics in this area it was difficult to pick the location becasue Google Streetview pics were out-of-date.
-
Good try but it's not the correct answer, Michael... :-(((
The "rock" is visible using "Streetview" though, you'll just have to find the right road... :grin
Oh, and another clue, it's a lot further away from the coast than Woolamai...
-
Is it near Flynn?
-
No where near there, Rex! :-(((
As I mentioned earlier, it's in South Gippsland...
-
Well that's one off the list
-
:grin
-
Is the word pioneer somewhere in the answer?
-
It's not, Rex...but you're on the right track, as in looking at beaches not actually on Phillip Island...
-
Lets try this!!
District of Kilcunda Road at Bena -Kongwak Rd near intersection with Buchanans Rd, Bena 3946

We have a winner!!! :runyay

Given that Gippsland is 41,556 square kilometres, I'm not convinced that "in Gippsland" is a particularly helpful clue.

Braddons Lookout, Leith, Tasmania is correct.
The Proclaimers hail from Leith in Scotland and also had an album called Sunshine In Leith (hence the fine day reference). I have it here.

Peterborough.
And for the bonus point: the celebrity owner was Dave Hill from Slade...

Nearly there. The bike is in the Peterborough Museum and yes one of the previous owners was Dave Hill of the exceedingly unattractive fringe. But where is the railway carriage? (The town is correct)

The bike is a Giant ATX, 21 speed with STi shifters, high pressure road tyres. It was a trade-in from my bicycle shop days, I usually only paid around $50 on a trade-in, so over 25 years, I reckon the kids and I got some value for $50.
Anyway, where was the pic taken?

At the beach??? :whistle

C'mon, Michael...get on ya motor-bike and go for a ride and take a piccy or 2... :grin

I'll chip in a bus or a wheelbarrow.

At the beach???
Not just any beach, an iconic beach.
I'll chip in a bus or a wheelbarrow.
Might even toss in a Kwaka - at least the Giant has ST in the specs.

My bicycle is a Giant too. :hijacked

My bicycle is a Giant too. :hijacked
Giant use to source very good components and put together a very good bike; not sure about recent or current models.
I couldn't get a deal with the Giant distributor (my little shop didn't have the volume they demanded), only ones I would get were trade-ins. I have another Giant, a Farago, which I bought in 1987 (pre-bikeshop days), it still going strong, it's a bit like grandfather's axe, the only original part is the frame, all components have been changed / upgraded two or three times.
Anyways, back to where's this?

This the Giant Farago, it's an old, heavy (by today's standards), but reliable, fast and good enough to carry me around the bay in a day back in 2006.

Is the beach iconic or just the surf?
Well, probably both, but I think Bells Beach more so ... from Wiki: Bells Beach is the home of the world's longest continuously running pro surfing competition – now known as the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach.
My first memory of Bells Beach is in the early 60's when Dad took my older brother (Jeff) and me on a search to find it. Jeff was 5 years older than me and a keen and competent surfer (unlike me at 10 years old), after we found the beach at the end of a long gravel track and even longer walk through the bushes, Jeff surfed until he went blue from the cold, waves were far too big for me so I sat on the beach with Dad.

I haven't been able to see your picture since you posted it, Michael... >:()
As for my pic, yes, I have one, just got to get around to uploading it...hopefully later tonight. :thumb
Is that for the Bells Beach pic as well, ie. you could see it, now you don't? Anyway, how's these now?

Yes, but you could be a little more specific. But you need to leave it someone else to solve, otherwise you'll have to take the camera and go for another ride.

I thought it was pretty self explanatory seeing as the street sign is in the pic...

With forecast temps in the mid to high 30's, Russ might not get out, and we might need to wait for a pic to be posted.

That's spot on, not just a wild guess. Over to you Russ.

Thanks Michael... :thumbs
As you previously mentioned, it's gonna be too bloody hot to go for a ride over the next few days.
Considering we waited the best part of 2 months to solve a "where is it pic" a while back, I reckon a few days wait won't kill us... :grin

Come on Rusty come on..
-
While we wait for Rusty to get the Box Brownie out, I thought I'd throw up a picture taken on the recent RTE to Elliston. I reckon this "Where is this" may even stump Bodo, and that would be some feat!
I'll throw in some hints in 48 hours if the location hasn't been picked.

Not me matey, just figured I'd put the full address in case someone else decided to be pedantic... :grin :whistle
-
Fair enough :grin

Well done JD - what gave it away?
Actually in this current climate of property price crazyness, $65,000 isn't back for a structurally sound building with a bit of land. Particularly if you embrace the hermit lifestyle.

Thanks Langers, just googled Old stone churches in South Australia ;-*. 65k for building and land certainly isn’t much, I was just trying to be funny quoting a line from the Castle :grin

Tea Tree Gully, SA?

That is incorrect, but you're in the right state.

A clue maybe?? just to keep the pace :wink1

Cockle St, St. Kilda?

Saint Kilda is correct. Back to you.

Given the low standard of some pics over the past year or two, a couple even featured a bicycle, I'm almost prepared to accept a Hyundai, but I won't. So whilst someone is searching for a pic, here's one of mine.

NSW?

Victoria (trust me)

Nope!

Yep, but not because you're a good guesser.
The pic was taken at a usual breakfast stop on a day ride from home.

Marysville?

Marysville?
Nope!

I'm guessing from this clue that you have knowledge of this establishment. The usual breakfast stop invloves a cappucinno and a pie. Most places can serve a cappucinno as good, some better; the pies are better than most.
-
Sadly I've not had the good fortune to visit the fine establishment - I just used some basic investigation techniques and worked out where it is. I'd say where it was but I'm away from home for the week, sans bike, and hence no photos to put up.
-
Tittybong? :grin
-
Tittybong? :grin
Nope for two reasons:
- It'd be a very early start from St Helena for Tittybong to be a breakfast stop.
https://goo.gl/maps/8z9ArjXYyHBR2zat6 - It's not there.
Perhaps a different angle will help.

Best guess at the moment is a town in the mid-North of SA. The Stobie pole is a dead give away for SA, and it looks like a mid-North town street view. Am I in the right area?
-
Good skills. Not quite the mid north but from Adelaide in that direction.
-
Mintaro?

Not Mintaro. The 2001 FA Cup Final comes to mind.
Here's another one from the same locality.

What a feeling! Owen is correct. I'll have to go back out there as that silo now has art. Anyways, you're it.
-
Thank you Bodo San.....Where is This?

Well done JD.
Bodo, where in Owen is it. I felt sure I'd seen it before and I have been through Owen recently, but for the life of me I can't find it on street view.

The original photo was on Main Street, after traversing the road from Pinery.

Ah, found the location but street view is 2014 and it was erected after that I presume because there's nothing but a stump where the grain head sculpture now is situated. Thanks.

I took the photo in 2018 whe the kwaka clocked up 70'000km.

Whilst the Whittlesea Kinglake Road, Kinglake West is correct, this section of road is approximately 3.8km and something a little more precise would have been better. https://goo.gl/maps/U4oVYT2251HgAVgx5
Nobody seemed to take advantage of Mark's cryptic clues - Sally Field ... free with her favours - so the appropriate answer probably should've included Flying Tarts Bakery & Cafe, after all that was pretty clear (?) in the second pic.
I'm hoping to get some of yuse guys trained up and toeing the line, eventually.

Like I said, I only look for a locality/suburb with my photos.

Cape Otway?

That is incorrect.
-
Kangaroo Island?

It's not Kangaroo Island. :popcorn

It looks a lot like Cape Willoughby lighthouse but if it's not KI then it can't be that one. Is it Point Lowly Lighthouse?
-
It's not Cape Willoughby or Port Lowly. :popcorn
-
Looks very much like Point Lowly lighthouse, but as the name suggests Point Lowly is situated quite low and the one in the photo is on a hill, maybe time for a clue Bodo San? SA?
-
Cape Bruny, Bruny Island,Tasmania?
-
Cape Bruny, South Bruny is correct. You're are it.
-
Thank you Bodo San. Where is This?

Karlgarin, Western Australia
-
Karlgarin, Western Australia
I'll give you that BG, but perhaps JD should confirm.
Whilst we're waiting here' some interesting facts from Wiki ... Karlgarin is a town located 321 kilometres south-east of Perth in the eastern Wheatbelt region of Western Australia. A small traditional farming town, in 2010 Karlgarin made national papers, as the poorest town in Western Australia, with an average of $34,054 taxable income.
Poorest town aye? Well I reckon if they worked more than one day per week, they could probably get 'emselves outta that situation.
-
Amazing Bodo San :-++, Karlgarin is correct, You are It :clap

From those two clues I got Sunraysia and Summer Holiday 😳

Sunraysia is correct and Summer Holiday is close. Ita Buttrose dug a ditch in the morning.
-
Could it be any more cryptic? Is it in the Red Cliffs area?

Other side of the river, but yes sort of in that area. You did mention the Young Ones reference.

How about Merton..... can’t decipher the cryptic clues :H
Well there's "M", then a You, an Are and then you have the first three letters of the aboriginal name of an aborignal elder, a municipality and of course the locality of this former church (opened 1914, last service 1991), if you Google Sinjin, you may found out what that means.

That is correct, you are it!
In SA it is iconic in that it is one of the best Australian salmon fishing beaches in the State. In years gone by (read, when I fished there) there were no steps down to the beach, you had to scramble down and up the drop to the beach. You didn't want to catch too many fish because it was bloody hard work taking them to the top. In recent years the road has been sealed and a set of steps built - 283 to be precise. Ahh, the kids of today - they don't know how easy they have it.
-
Got in before my four day ban on Langers' photos expired.
-
Here's the scramble up the hill in the pre-steps days.
Chris was carrying the fish.....

On a Tassie visit back in 2010, I walked the steps from the Gordon Dam viewing platform to the top of the damn dam wall, I counted (what I now know to be "only") 208 steps, but I did run out of puff and lost count. Helen (who stayed on the viewing platform) suggested I go back for a re-count. Yeah, my name's Billy, not Silly,

I has that beanie until last year. It fell out of my pocket on a local walking track and when I went back five minutes later to retrieve it, some scoundrel had taken it. :well
Nothing like a favourite beanie, I have quite a few just in case I loose one.

That was back in 1977. It's not just my hair that has changed since then, including a reluctance to tackle the 283 steps that I last did a couple of years, and had no fish to show for it.

It may require Jonathan Creek to solve it.
BG's posts indicate that he knows it, he was first so it looks like it's his turn, but he and everyone is talking around the answer but not actually saying it. If he or anyone else was to proceed with the next pic it wouldn't be fair on any interested onlookers - if there are any.

Spalding SA.

It's not Spalding.

Is it in the SA Mid-North? The mid-North being bounded by Whyalla to the west, just north of Port Augusta to the north, Oodla Wirra to the east and Owen to the south - roughly.
-
None of the above.

Harrow, Vic?
-
That's the closest guess so far.

Looks like this one has stalled and a few clues needed.

It would be close to crossing the line.

In other words, it's a border town, without it being Bordertown.

Bodo, I reckon give it 48 hours - no point in having it hang around. I was wondering if you might have included it in "Big things"

I've googled "bird monument" and "museum", got lots of results, but alas none successful. Some clues may be helpful.

In other words it wasn't a mountain of promise.

If you dig enough, you might find gold. And old cows.

I have just checked Street view and it seems the sculpture is fairly recent and is not seen on Street view, which makes the task of picking the location particularly difficult. According to Google Earth the location is between 34km and 35km from Adelaide as the crow flies.

That's the Mighty ATX in front of the sign. It's about the only two wheels I've been riding lately. This AM's ride was a bit fresh on the pushie, around 1C when I set off. First time I've had to look for a spot to hop off to warm up the fingers, effing frozen they were. Found a park bench in the sunshine, sans frost, put my hands into to pants to warm up the pinkies, at least that was my excuse and what I told the nice policeman, I think he believed me...
Had to do some photo shopping, otherwise this way too obvious. Re. the nursery, VFL Sharp Shooter Simon would not proud of my work. For SA members, that may not be a clue, but for WA members (who follow AFL / VFL) and / or the Western Bulldogs, it may mean something.

I like the way you're thinking but I need you to be a little bit more specific... :p
I think this means that's in Foster, but I need to be more specific (as per my earlier response to BG's reference to Doncaster East). But where in Foster? In which park or reserve? Pearl Park? Whipstick Gully Natural Features Reserve? New Zealand Hill Nature Conservation Reserve? New Zealand Hill Flora Reserve? Foster Racecourse & Recreation Reserve? Station Road Reserve?
Okay, I'll nominate Pearl Park.
In the meantime ...

I've been to Madalya and Minnehaha Falls, both are just up the road from friends in Jack River, whom we visited last week on the way home from Lakes Entrance.

Hopefully we can sort this thing out by Friday so Bodo's drink will be a celebratory one.

Anyways, back to "where is it?", Michael has been very close with some of his answers.
He's got it right with the town but as I mentioned previously, you need to look outside the township.

I admit it won't be real easy to work it out but that's part of the challenge...
What I will tell you though...it's in South Gippsland.

Lima? :think1

Lima? :think1
Correct. I'm assuming good deductive skills, perhaps you can elaborate for the others.
Lima is what could be described as an enigma, it does not have what I would describe as an exact location. According to a Victoria Places website it is ...
Lima, a rural district, comprises the physical features of Lima Creek, Lima Valley and the smaller localities of Lima East and Lima South. The area is generally 25 km south of Benalla, set in undulating country with numerous creeks. There is State forest to the west and south, part of which is the Warrenbayne State forest.
Lima was the name of a pastoral run taken up in 1839 by William Black and William McKellar. McKellar had apparently visited Lima, Peru.
By 1880 small-farm settlers had come to Lima and schools were opened at Lima (1883), Lima South (1885) and Lima East (1888). A Lima station was on the branch railway line from Benalla to Tatong (1914-47). The locality itself, however, was on neither a main road nor a railway line, and the nearest main-road town is Swanpool on the Midland Highway between Benalla and Mansfield.
Lima was developed as a dairying district, and local farmers assisted in the agitation for the Lake Nillahcootie storage near the headwaters of the Broken River. Dairying and mixed farming are now carried on. All three Lima schools were closed in 1970-71. Lima South has a public hall and a Country Fire Authority station.
Anyways the old school is located here: https://goo.gl/maps/6ZfrxHdmtq9vm6NXA (https://goo.gl/maps/6ZfrxHdmtq9vm6NXA)

20 days since it's original posting - this needs some clues to get it going again.

Spanner's original post starting this game said:
"the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable and the person who guesses correctly gets to either post a photo themselves OR nominate someone to post a photo."
This picture is obviously not easily identifiable from what has been provided to date so I'm guessing it must be iconic. I'm looking forward to reading how it has achieved its iconic status.
-
Agreed. The game needs to get back to the original intent which is challenging, yet fun, identifying iconic landmarks.
I check in occasionally, but find many of the posts are ????, so don't bother trying to play.
-
So what you want are iconic photos that are instantly recognisable...and if they are so easily recognisable where's the challenge??? :||||
Many of the landmarks or places of interest that others have posted up have meant nothing to me as I've never been there yet quite often I'll still try to work them out...with varying degrees of success.
For example Michael posted up one fairly recently of a nursery...(is a nursery iconic???)
As a matter of interest, this current photo IS actually of something iconic (& historic) to the area in which it's in...
Sometimes you just have to look for clues in the pic...or ask a question!
Michael obviously studied the pic which is why he came up with the great southern rail trail...
It wasn't that but he was sort of on the right track!
-
<so I'm guessing it must be iconic. I'm looking forward to reading how it has achieved its iconic status.
I'll happily post up info about it down the "track"... :thumb
-
"the idea is to provide a photo of your STeed in front of something iconic ..... or 'easily' identifiable and the person who guesses correctly gets to either post a photo themselves OR nominate someone to post a photo."
That has been mentioned a number of times previously.
For example Michael posted up one fairly recently of a nursery...(is a nursery iconic???)
... or easily identifiable, and in that case ...
Had to do some photo shopping, otherwise this way too obvious.
Inconic? It could be argued that there was an iconic element to the location.
... Re. the nursery, VFL Sharp Shooter Simon would not proud of my work. For SA members, that may not be a clue, but for WA members (who follow AFL / VFL) and / or the Western Bulldogs, it may mean something.
Simon Beasley was a champion football player for Swan Districts and Footscray football clubs, and he is in the Footscray Team of the Century, and the West Australian Football Hall of Fame, inducted 2007, as well as receiving many other others - an icon of the game.
Now back to the current pic. Given responses to answers so far, I'm guessing on the Great Southern Rail Trail between Korumburra and Leongatha.
-

Is it the Kokoda Trail, Papua New Guinea?
-
From my perspective I think it is more about recognising when people "haven't got a clue" and progressively throwing in more researchable clues until it is obvious that we are all so thick that we're never going to get it and it almost has to be spelt out. I just don't see the point of having a picture sitting up there for days and days on end. If people aren't throwing in guesses it is suggesting it's too hard and they give up. The more pictures posted and the more people involved makes for a more fun game. I'm not suggesting posting ridiculously easy pictures either.
-

As I mentioned previously, it's not the Great Southern Rail Trail, Michael!
But, in saying that, it does have something to do with the Great Southern Rail Trail before it became the Great Southern Rail Trail... :whistle

I guess it's a bit of a balancing act as to how hard to make a game...
But, as we've seen previously, if it's too easy we all quickly run out of suitable photos.
And in these times of lockdown and travel restrictions it's getting harder & harder to refresh stocks of suitable photos.
I haven't had a chance to travel interstate since I've owned my ST so the chance of posting up photos that, for example, members in South Oz are going to easily identify is virtually impossible...just as many photos of, for example, South Australian buildings etc are basically impossible for me to recognise without doing lots of google searches etc. But, sometimes I've been able to achieve it...
The reality is, for me, most of my photos are going to be around Gippsland so that narrows things down considerably for those playing the game...it's not ideal but if I'm going to participate in this game they are the restrictions I'm dealing with...
I guess at the end of the day it's all up to how serious you are at trying to solve the game... :popcorn
-

Please Sir Rusty, may we have the geographical coordinates of this location? :H
-
Hi JD, the geographical coordinates are above my pay grade, in other words, I haven't got a clue as to what they are... :whistle
But, what I'd be doing is to perhaps search for shut down railway lines in the South Gippsland area...
Also, a closer look at the photo will perhaps give you a clue as to what part of the railway was once located here.
Good luck! :thumb
-
If you find a location on Google Maps, right click your mouse, a box of info will pop-up, the top line are GPS coordinates, eg. -38.43237546664745, 145.82473782808935. Now if you cut 'n' paste that back into Google Maps search field it will take you to Kelly's Bakery. You can thank me when you buy me a capucinno there one day - soon we hope.
WRT shutdown rail lines in South Gippy. Isn't that everything beyond Cranbourne?
Anyways, having regard to the topography in the pic, my (latest) guess is Old Loch Railway Station.

Thanks for the explanation, Michael... :thumb
I probably should explain that I actually did know how to get them, but there was no way I was actually going to look them up and then post them... :whistle
I may be silly, but I'm not that silly... :rofl
Still happy to shout you a cappuccino, hopefully in the not to distant future... :thumbsup

Correct, but there was more than one railway line in South Gippy...
Anyways, having regard to the topography in the pic, my (latest) guess is Old Loch Railway Station.
JD has already previously suggested Loch which was not correct but it's good that you've recognised from the photo that it may have been a railway station... :thumbs
-
Looks like you lot need a clue! :o
Okay, this shed is on what used to be a branch line off the South Gippsland Railway Line.
It can also be seen on Google Street View...
-
I don't need a clue. I'm just not that interested.
-
Yet you were interested enough to tell me that you're not interested... :crackup
-
Well, as people either can't be bothered or can't work out where this "shed" is, I figure it's about time to spill the beans so we can move on... :runyay
It's the former Triholm Railway Station, which is roughly 300 metres north of the Poowong East Hall. The site (& Shed) can be viewed by travelling along Main South Road...

This shouldn't be too hard to work out... :popcorn

Thanks for reviving this game Rusty :like. It is a fun game as long as it’s not too difficult to recognise the location otherwise one tends to lose interest. The objective of the game should be to show new and interesting places people have visited with plenty of clues rather than making it difficult to recognise .
Cheers
JD.

Yep, only 31,416 square kilometres to look within. Well, probably can cut out the a few thousand square K's under salt water.

A closer look at the photo will give you a clue as to what sort of body of water it is.
BTW, JD was on the right track in his thinking...
-
Pretty obvious another clue is required.
Okay, here's another clue which should narrow the search...the location is within a 50 km radius of Korumburra...
-
Can what we see in the picture (minus the bike and perhaps the fencing) been seen from Street view?
-
No...but if you find the right place on Google Maps there will be a photo showing pretty much the same view as in my photo... :thumbs

-
This shouldn't be too difficult.
If searching the internet for ugly, rusty sculptures is any help.
-
Poignant would be a more appropriate descriptor to all but a bogan I would suggest. Oh, and that is the first clue - poignant that is.
-
Clue time. The sculpture can be found on the outskirts of a town in the Western Districts of Victoria. You should not miss it when riding by, the speed sign dictates 70 kph and it can bee seen on Google's Streetview.
-
Well, sadly it looks like this game has run its course. The pictures give a better view of the sculpture and an explanation of its meaning. The Victorian town is Merino, roughly 1/3 of the way (heading south) between Casterton and Heywood.
-

Browsing back to the early days it seems you had to be fairly specific on many of the pics to be correct even back then...
It's a game, surely pics that are a little bit challenging can make it more interesting???
In saying that though, this particular pic shouldn't be too hard...
At the end of the day If no-one takes up the challenge this thread will fade away yet again... :popcorn
-
"this particular pic shouldn't be too hard..."
Well, I've narrowed it down to: Most likely somewhere in a water catchment area of one of the 3 Eastern States, our Capital Territory, Tasmania and parts of SA. Possibly WA but I'm not familiar with that State. Most likely a war memorial.
Am I getting close?
Just my humble opinion, but I think pictures like these should include some very basic hints so that one can start one's detective work.

In saying that though, it's good you're having a go! :clap
Re your guesses:
It's not in any of those States/Territories.
Water Catchment? Hmm, it is but it's not water you'd want to be drinking...
War Memorial? Sort of... :thumb
Good luck, you've done well so far... :thumbs
-
That pretty much leaves the Jervis Bay Territory
-
Sorry, I misread what you'd said... I blame Alzheimer's! :||||
It's in one of the Eastern States... :thumbs
-
A water catchment of a sort you wouldn't want to drink from says either salt or sewerage, and as it doesn't seem to be straight lines, I will say salt.
'Sort of' a war memorial says it is a commemoration of something colonial, so probably a first landing or something similar. The other option is a ship-wreck, with the story on the big rock, and the memorial list of victims on the front one.
Where about and which one is now someone else's guess.
-
>says either salt or sewerage, and as it doesn't seem to be straight lines, I will say salt.
It's neither of those...
'Sort of' a war memorial says it is a commemoration of something colonial, so probably a first landing or something similar.
Pretty much right with your commemoration comment but it's not "colonial....
The other option is a ship-wreck<
It's not a shipwreck, in fact this body of water is not near the coast at all.
>with the story on the big rock, and the memorial list of victims on the front one.
The story and a list of "people" are on the rocks but they weren't victims...
Good luck! :thumbs

It's in Eastern Victoria...
