Similar to the old Dunlop Denovo run-flats of the 70s/80s?

Looks like it is from Fort Point National Historic Site, looking towards The Golden Gate Bridge.

Offs, may I say though how do we know he's standing? He could be sitting, we can't see his legs. Also that image has been reversed as fort point is to the right not to the left of the bridge.

You never know, I may have had my legs chopped off...

If that happened you would have to pedal with your hands and how can you keep your head up to avoid parked cars? (Insert picture of hand powered bicycles)

The 50 points for today's spot go to Ryan for appreciating that Jim may not be standing anywhere!! The answer on the card was ' on the bank of the Golden Gate' The Golden Gate being the straight of water that connects San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean! Easy when you have the answers :-D

Is that just a random appearer in the thread Peter or something that should have gone in Unusual/Interesting Engines, or an intended whatsthisthen?

Clearly the Great Wall Of China, from when Jim went to buy his Great Wall SUV but then went downmarket and bought a French thing instead.

It could be anywhere along the length of the wall though.

A Google snoop offers many possible locations but doesn't define this one.
