It is about 150 metres to the East. Someone made a slight error with the surveying.

Hi fellow adventurers. The first WA edition of the Adventure Rider Magazine Congregation will be held near Nannup on the weekend of October 14/15 2017. This has been a very well received event on the other side of the country for the last couple of years so the team at Motorrad Garage are joining fo...

I've been across there before. Is fuel not available at Wingelina any more? Not sure...never checked or called in. I thought they were all closed roads and closed communities so I try not to attract attention. Fair enough. That's correct but they were very welcoming to us. I suppose different peopl...

Good to see you still living the dream Steve. I look forward to catching up with you at the OCR How are you thinking of coming back to WA...I'm thinking about returning via the APY Lands. Great road, stunning vistas. You need a range of 900 km if you come out at Warburton or a range of about 750km ...

I am considering it but need a another rider to go with.

I wish I had seen this before. I would have been keen but have made alternative arrangements now.

Thanks, but things are changing. Don't wait for me if I'm not there.

Bit quiet on the Northern front. :shock: I have asked Northern riders to indicate if they will be utilising the mentioned pick-up points on the way that we have indicated. To date no one has indicated they will be joining the ride at these points. Does this mean all riders will be starting at Hilla...

Each to their own I guess.
I couldn't even imagine wanting to try to get that sort of mileage out of a tyre.
Yawn.

But I do have to agree that the K60 is a good wearing tyre. The one I have on at present will give me the most k's I have got out of any tyre.

Ahhhh no wheelspin Howard.......

if you apply a little right wrist it will severely affect these numbers.

Probably only about half the motorcycling population.

There is another snail trail ride for novice offroad riders happening on 22/6/14
More details here http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=981341
This ride will be suitable for the big GS's but it is recommended that you have knobby type tyres as it will be slippery in places.

Yep, they are going well.
They will be in Birdsville for lunch tomorrow

Lots of light penetration... I should say, enough for me off road and 110kph on the highways. For a second opinion ask Howard about how good these BajaD LED's are. We did some night riding up around Kumarina last year. And I suspect we may have been doing a shade over 110 too. Shane was on a mission.
