Thanks for the ride today guys.

I joined in at Bullsbrook and we did a loop in and around the northern hills, easy going and some water still around. I said goodbye just south of bindoon and headed back to my car via GN Hwy. 101ks all up.

Longest ride for me for a very long time and the easy single trail and hill climbs , really high lighted to me that I need to get some rear brake happening. Maybe a LH bar mount. Or something. Something attached to the clacker could work:)

Oh and a mirror, not much fun being over taken by a double semi when your not aware it's coming.

Thanks again for letting me fit in guys.

Thanks for the ride today guys. Nothing too hard but it was one of those days where it was just nice to be out and about on the bike and finished off with a couple of coldies.

A latte & cappuccino kicked off proceedings at the Dome in Kingsley before Mick led us on our merry way.

The dirt started off at the end of Sydney road – which is a post-apocalyptic scene that Mad Max would be proud of.

Picked up WrfPaul in Bullsbrook on a sweet looking 60th anniversary WR250F – I’m still disappointed you didn’t want to swap Paul!

Got to sample the bitumen of Chittering Valley, the Julimar trails (the easy ones), nice gravel roads met a chopper coming the other way on one gravel downhill, had to get off the road for half a catamaran being transported on another road – and took the limestone tracks back from Gin Gin which a sample of the weaving Powerlines track.

Finished back in the leafy surrounds of the Woodvale pub for some well-earned coldies.

Around 250km all up, a perfect way to spend a mild day in mid-summer. Thanks for leading Mick and good to catch up with Tommy again and meet Paul.
