Well done Pete. Glad you could get into the building. It's often locked up tight.
I was back there last week using the shed as a backdrop for some photos of my MINI Cooper and the cleaner / security guard / fun police, asked me to leave and locked the gate behind me. |

Sometimes people try to offend me by saying that the Vespa is not a serious motorcycle, and I tend to agree. For my wife and I it's our weekend, inner-city toy and we love it.

Got it, as soon as I realised where I'd see it before- in the real estate pages! This one was billed as "Sydney's finest warehouse conversion", so yes, it's now a block of flats.

You can see the bridge from here too, but I'm bored with that now. So lets have some more blocks of flats!

Fluffy, think it's time for a clue.
Looks familiar but I can't pick where it is. Inner west somewhere.?. |

Further in than inner west... There are a whole bunch of shiny new overpriced waterfront apartments here, and a couple of media companies (the logo on top of the brick building in the background might seem more apparent in light of this clue)

After the clue it all made sense, so I made my way down to Pyrmont reasonably early, snapped a pic and as I was leaving I saw Pete on his way down. Stopped for a quick chat and a photo of what could be the first, non-planned simultaneous scooter tag?
