I took it as another clue.In comparison, Kia Sedona is an unimpressive car ; NOC had a rally at KL a few years ago ; but Bulgaria ??And has Nick really crossed all these ?R.

I know the one in Arizona is called Devils Bridge and the one in England is in Cumbria but I have not been to Bulgaria this week.

You are correct Interpol2471 and I am not sure if rustynuts got there first and was just being cryptic.They are all called Devils Bridge, and the Devils Bridge in Wales consists of three bridges, one above the other.and yes, Richard the one in Arizona is near Sedona.

The Bulgarian one at Ardino was a late substitute for one of my own photos which I could not find, and no I haven't been to Bulgaria. If you googled the question then Devils Bridge in Wales was the first answer followed later by the three bridges at Conwy.

I've been to that one as well Very Happy I remember it well as I had a bit of an accident on my VF750SC when visiting there which included sliding up onto the petrol tank in my wet waterproofs under heavy braking and ending up with the handle bars jammed in my privates trying to balance the bike before of course falling off in the car park in front of everyone red face

Hi guys, This bridge looks very much like the one in a university town(which for the life of me I can't remember) in northern Spain about 150miles west of Santander?

Yes, I did put that up as a clue to give someone else a chance. After all I am now full of coconut and rapidly running out of bridge photos, unless it is time to change the subject matter.

As no one else has replied yet, I shall step into the breech with my final bridge photo. It's not a particularly good photo of it, as it is so big you would need to take to the sea or the air to be able to view it all.

Coconut to TRL. I wouldn't recommend crossing this bridge on two wheels in a force 9, as I once did. 6.7km seems endless at 20mph, fighting the gusts to stop yourself drifting into the next lane.

Ok an unusual view of a familiar place, well familiar to me anyway. You may notice the butterflies apparently feeding off the tree if you look close.

No, but it is a parkland circuit.Interpol2471 was on the right tack if not the right track.

Give that man a coconut.It is Oulton Park and smiley is it where the paddock slip road joins the circuit at Old Hall and also the old pit return road ran back up to the pits against the flow of the circuit.

You mean, apart from the missing oil pipes and still no stand or mirrors, it's not a rotary ?

Yes, obviously apart from not being a rotary. You won't see the problem now as those cunning people at Norton Motorcycles have just changed the phto for one of a modified bike, shortly after I posted the link. Fortunately I have found a link to the photo I was talking about here:http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa4/ ... urches.jpg

Ah yes ! The one with the oil pipes, no stand or mirrors, and the self-servo front brake.

The extra long front brake pipes (designed to eat the oil cooler and front mudguard) seem to be a feature of Mr Garners products. I saw some footage of the rotary racer being tested by Mr Dunlop at the IOM and the front brake pipes were sticking out all over the place. Far enough to snag any passing motorist. couldn't see them getting through scrutineering.

The only difference I see between the two photos is the different front mudguard and brake pipes.
