A Cook a Clown and the mixed Meta Four
Posted: Sun 19 May, 2013 3:25 pm
Six riders headed out on a wide loop to get to Gin Gin for the British Motor Car Show.
An Englishman, a Scotsman, an Irishman and a Northern Australian combined with Cookie and Bozo to exploit the magnificent riding weather.
A commute through the city congestion and a spiral up the Toodyay Hill saw the Sunday six in the leafy lanes of O'Brian Road before the roller coaster ride on the new link to Brigadoon. The recent rain meant the countryside was magnificent.
From Brigadoon the pack descended on the Swan Valley deviating at Pearce to the Chittering Valley. Still lots of road works and loose stone but there were enough clear sweeping corners too reset everyones sense of balance.
Bindoon Bakehouse was heaving with motorcyclists and sports cars. The mandatory Pie and Pastie stop (yep Tom got the chunky beef version) was followed by a cruise over Crest Hill to Moolabeenie Road. The progress was steady with most of the pack stuck behind an assemblage of Alfas.
At Gin-Gin the town was packed with rubber neckers parking 500 metres away from the event. Hundreds of British Cars with most worth more than a water cooled GSA.
Due to the parking limitations we joined the event with a pop up BMW display behind the toilets.
DFS was flooded with enquiries about his GS farkling and stole the show from the Aston Martins, Lotuses and Bentleys.
Thanks for a great ride on a magnificent day.
