Brisbane Crew: New potential spot

http://maps.google.com.au/maps?rlz=1C1CHKB_en-GBAU421AU421&q=go...

I was on facebook and a friend said for driving lessons he got taken out here. He says it is ridiculously steep with hairpins and when he drove down he thought of me on my longboard.

Anyway.

Not sure how well it would work or if there is much traffic but steep hills and hairpins on mountains always hold an appeal for speed boarders :)

Ok thanks.
if its 70-90 with dodgy pavements then its out of my limits i'd guess.

Cheers for the help.

we have been skating this for seven years, we treat it like cootha, get in get out, do it early and hope you dont come across the pommy motorcycle cop.

When I met him, we were on a street off the main run going down to a dead end and he turned a blind eye... he was however booking two speed happy moto guys, so probably in a good mood.

Jesus Tim, Daddow and Arbi aren't old thank you. We of that age prefer the title of "life experienced" not old! Just because we've been skating longer than you guys have been breathing doesn't make us old. Haha. Who are we kidding. I can't believe that pommy cop is still there booking people at that end of the range. I remember being booked by him on my motorbike back in 1993. I'd love to know the total revenue he's brought to the QLD police over all his years of service. Should well and truly be enough to upgrade those nastier sections of road by now.

Steep as hell, and there is always a pommy motorbike cop there, been patroling that area since Daddow and Arbi were skating it as young guys.
