I think bunting is sufficient given the weekend is nearly over.

Well it's wet here, so I'll take mostly anything to move on now.

Is a sea loch close enough? I'll admit the bike facing the wrong way to be overlooking it.

The Mall was still very "decorative" yesterday but still closed to traffic & besides I'd let the train take the strain.

I'm back at work today, and yesterday it was raining - I got wet when I took the bike out

Shit, I didn't think I'd win. It's worse than playing I-Spy with my children.

How about near or with a viaduct in view? The material the viaduct is made from isn't specified.

Was out for a couple of hours to play and buggered if i can find anything like that anywhere near me as its bloody flat everywhere ....for anyone near the Yorkshire Dales i did have a pic of my Ducati near one of the best Viaducts in the country at Ribblehead but cant obviously use it for this unless it runs to next week as i am heading north to visit the parents and i hate using motorways :mrgreen:

There's not even a bridge where I am. We did get a zebra crossing this year* complete with Belisha beacons and some double yellow lines.

*The weather's that bad even the horses wear fur coats.

Here's a bit of help in finding a viaduct - viaductsuk.com
This site is intended to list all of the UK's viaducts with locations so that you can go and visit them.
They've even got a handy map -

Their intention does not appear to be fully met, they're missing the Wolverton viaduct here in MK.

Went and found this one this morning as it's nice and sunny- it's the Twemlow Viaduct in case you want to look it up on Viaductsuk :)

For the next one how's by a canal bridge?
