Next mark is oversized symbol.

Like this roller skate and it can be anything.  Corn cob, mexican hat, cucumber... symbol or model in 3D used for promotion an marketing or just to catch attention.

I hear you, I just hope I have statistics on my side now.  Fairfax motorcycle cop died not so long ago hitting a deer near the Manassas battlefield park.  Parks are the worst , deer are like squirrels in there.

I've been lurking on this topic for a while. This guy is on my morning ride.
The artist is a guy named Dale Whistler. He also has a 3d bat sculpture down by the bat bridge in downtown. Pretty neat stuff.

If y'all accept this the next mark is a pole or pipe yard, just lots!!!

thanks

It's past 7 day's. Unless somebody has a glorious pic incoming I'd move to change it.
What say y'all?

Wow, that was fast. I have one roundabout in my town and it is not anything special to look at. Its also small so I might get killed trying to get a pic. I know New Orleans has some really nice roundabouts.

Yeah, I thought about safety too - it could be just the traffic sign for roundabout ahead.

We have three on VA50 crossing VA 15 and there is plenty of space to stop and take a picture, but be safe guys, traffic sign is plenty.

There's a new one they just built on the military fort here, but, I can't ride on post unless I pay the 400 bux to go through their safety course.

Last time I was in Jacksonville Florida, they had a bunch of them. Too bad I'm not still down there.

If it sounds like I know what I'm talking about, it's because I cut and pasted from someone else.

Next subject, how about a crane, tower crane or (big) mobile one?

Tower Crane at a local concrete pre-fab yard.



Next get: a single lane traffic bridge.  Must be on a public street (no private roads) and large enough for a car.  Example:

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

I AM Robert van Gulik ;D

But assuming you mean the writer about Chinese Judge Dee, yes, he was something like a greatuncle thrice removed. Never met him, he died when I was about ten years old.
Have (read) several of his books, and I quite like them
