Comments and Feedback
Very large tyres and metal construction materials everywhere. Bike taken to refuse centre for proper disposal or repurposing or cleaning up to be used again. Sinkers were scrubbed and will be melted for dive weights
There is a wall of plastic containers under the fishing platform. Seems they are part of the construction.. Very strange. Visibility too poor to get pictures
