I doubt many will know, but, any thoughts on where I was?

I'll give you a clue 5 mile radius of belfast centre and about 1/2 a mile from a famous place.....

Cave Hill, Black Mountain with Ulster GP circuit being the famous place?

 

[DrFarkoff]

Hmmmmm Back off, Black mountain will do

As you drive up the Glenside road there is a big 5 bar gate that I think led to an old quarry I use that road when coming back from Lisburn just to get away from the traffic and "peoples" on the school run! <Most Dangerous time of the day to be on a motorcycle in any town!

54.583603,-6.045792 if you zoom in on the dirt road just at point A and follow it down you can see the white of the waterfall in the sat picture

The top of the Glenside Road brings you out at the hairpin on the Grand prix circuit

Not Bad at all

about 50 yards back from the junction of the circuit with Wheelers Road

Strange to see the mountains so clear that's why I took the shot

Know it well as it was part of my frustration (scare the shit out of myself) run on the R75/6 after one of those days at work. Riding the circuit in the reverse direction is fun especially coming down the hill from Wheelers to Quarterlands.
Also a link run between the parents and the in-laws, and I've a mate who lives on the circuit at Quarterlands.
