;-* I guess we are all going to abstain !
Just to be the odd one out; I'm not playing but have no idea what and where this place is.

Plus I once played another photo in the same town and he sent me a pm to say he knew where it was.

The fact that Langers has said that he knows it, makes me think that it's somewhere on Eyre Peninsula.

I think your new ride has been there.

Thanks for the hint Shillas, which stopped me from scouring Street View on the west coast, and sent me back to the detail of the photo.

It's the corner of Peake and Coombe Tce, Waikerie, and the building is the Waikerie Hotel/Motel.   Using skills developed in my past life, and with careful interpretation, it was possible to read the name of the hotel on the banner below the left umbrella.  :grin

Avoiding that one was a play on last weekend's trip report, but truth be known this is one place I'd like the check out.  My wife is also keen on it but we both doubt that the kids will enjoy it so who knows when we'll get around to it.

For something a little bit different, a different type of ST:


That was my ride for the day, a STrom.

Well it sure ain't the Milford tunnel which is much more civilised, including bitumen.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
