Title: Mural

Yes, it is on topic.  Underneath this deeply uninspiring bridge in Worcester Park:

I noticed a mural on the subject of transport usage by some secondary school kids.  Sorry I couldn't get a better straight on shot, but the pavement wasn't very wide, and I didn't fancy standing in the road.  Oh - and apologies this is from my phone camera, but it was all I had on me.

That's pretty good. I wonder what effect it had on the painters, and has on those who see it?

As for the quality of the photo, your phone takes much better pics than mine. Oh, and there's a nice bike in the photo as well!

There's a bloody bike in the way!

You'll have to go back and take them again.  ;D

A fantastic mural of Robert Millar on a golf club building at the foot of the Crow Road, a climb he must have done many times as a youngster.

A few of my clubmates joined in the group ride with Pippa up the crow, and got some great pics with her.  :thumbsup:
