Location

The side of the road outside 21 Cotswold Rd. Strathfield.

Pretty close.
Middlerun at the corner of Llandilo Ave. and Cotswold Rd. Strathfield, near the hash.
Other end of the block.
60 km/h over the hash!

People

  • K.C. - Caught the train out to Strathfield then dead-reckoned with the help of my handy etrex GPS to within 20cms of the location (or thereabouts) by 2:15pm. Drew a chalk cross on the ground, took some pictures, got some strange looks. Stranger than normal anyway. Next time I'll try and get photos with GPS, location, etc all in frame...
  • Middlerun - I went to the geohash at about 3:00 pm. I actually forgot which house it was, and thought it was number 17 rather than 21, so I don't have a photo of the exact spot but I would have walked within a few metres of it as I walked up and down the block a couple of times to photograph the street signs. Then I drove past a couple of times doing about 50 km/h the first time and about 60 the next, qualifying me for the Speed Racer Achievement.
