Yes I remember it well

It was on the warwick road ,Greet Birmingham . Moved to an industrial unit in Aston Birmingham around 85ish
Ive had this sticker 30 ish years .
I finally got round to putting it on my scooter last year

What was the one called on a slight downward hill I think it was just past an iron railway bridge on the right going down the hill

Actually I thinkthat was it what was the other place called im sure it was on a corner of a y junction
