2020 was a hard year to get out and find incredible spots to ride but somehow we squeezed at least a few tiny trips into it. On one journey we managed to find this incredible structure from the early 80s. It had a really tricky and bumpy run-up that I had to figure out first. As soon as I got to the top of the over vert structure I realized those outward-facing sharp metal pieces would be another thing that had to be managed while going higher on the structure. On some tries, my back wheel would barely clear them by just a few inches.

 It's uploaded onto a website called 'Pinkbike'. You may have heard of it.

 Perhaps it wasn't intentional, and Airik isn't annoyed or upset.

 @Neale78: As disclosed. It is indeed in Austria. I often do not disclose the exact location as I fear my photos might bring in riders that are less careful around those buildings than I am. When I leave spots, I make sure you can´t tell I was there.
