Oh, is *that* what they're for. I have seen one or two of those around, like on a bridleway near Rowville, Vic: http://www.nearmap.com/?ll=-37.958364,145.26343&z=22&t=h&nmd=20100416 They're pretty good at stopping mountain bikers too. :) Steve _______________________________________________ Talk-au mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
