A lot of effort to get your bike to the track and then go back to your bathroom just to take the photo...

Probably just be the entrance gate, but there are other tracks locally I can photo it near, how about the site of an old drag strip? (It's now under Tesco's car park) or an old motocross track that's now part of a mountain bike trail.

I have loads of photos of a couple of my bikes running on one of the two decently surfaced runways of the abandoned Željava Air Base in Croatia. At 1.6 kms long, you can do flat out runs (depending on what bike you are riding)

Only mentioned as I would usually be riding around the Balkans this month, and having a few runs up and down the two runways.

Ah, life before Covid...

If you have to have a 'duct',maybe a viaduct would be more common?
