OK, not everyone will know what this is, but some should.

Does anyone remember what this is?

Nope, not in Texas.

(The location is somewhat cycling-related.)

It's over the river and thru the woods - only one thing it could be!

A shed in Bozeman.

Either that or the place where Tom Hanks got off the bus in that plane-crash movie.

it's :banana: from the sight of a smart bomb just before it took out the shed with Saddam's weapons of mass destruction

Unbelievable that even with Elefantino's hint no one has gotten this yet. It wasn't that long ago - 2005, to be exact.

Aside: Elefantino's "wild guess" IMO has to be one of the all-time greatest lucky guesses in history, since he says was not there, and I assume he does not have any fancy software that was able to remove my "spray paint" used to obscure the Google earth info.

Nope, I wasn't sure of the road configuration.

(my computer is crunching something...)

Am I close?

C'mon bro! this was the Brandford bike HQ before the fire destroyed it! Isn't it?

A!

Ding, ding, ding - We Have a Winner.

The turnaround point of the '05 GdB long route.

I happened to be on Google Earth, and thought I'd see if I could find the area, and sure enough, there it was.

No, they don't teach that at Harvard, it's part of the application. If you can't tell a Nuovo Record derailleur from a shed (or your father donates a billion or a building - whichever is more) you get in.

Indeed! Next time you visit this shed, I will lay out a platter of gluten free baked goods for you and the antelope to share.

I never would have guessed that spot Louis! It looks so desolate. It's much prettier in real life.
