Through the Urban Sprawl to South Geraldton
Posted: Sun 09 Aug, 2015 7:06 pm
The surprise of clear skies and the need for Intrepid Ken to get a dose of WA coastline had 8 riders threading their way through housing developments from Burns Beach to Two Rocks.
Kim, Bill, Intrepid Ken, GS Bill + Trish, Dinga, Bozo, Jack and Alan cut a swathe along the coast and on to a sleepy Guilderton. A mandatory stop at the lookout where observant riders noted the bar was open followed by a visit to the Guilderton General Store for nourishment.
Bozo bailed to head to Perth for a flying visit to the Airport whilst Bill took over to guide the group home.
A real bonus to get another great day for a ride.
Thanks to Bill for leading the group back to Perth.

We agreed back at Moore river that we would go home via Bindoon-Chittering so that Intrepid Ken could reminisce with his previous life as a BMWMCCWA member and remember some of the better near Perth rides that he used to venture on I was leading the group out of Moore river and made a wrong turn and when I got back on track found Kim leading the ride. Thinking no problems Kim knows the way I stayed back as tail end charley. Kim seemed to be heading in the right direction until we passed the turn-off to Gingin and he kept going South along the Brand Hwy. I thought that he may know another route to Bindoon so followed the group with the K1600 LT proceeding South at a great rate of knots. Passing another turn-off sign that indicated it was the way to Bindoon I started to think the lead rider wasn't going to be taking us on the planed route. Being almost at Muchea by this stage I then gave up the idea of a scenic Bindoon/Chitering valley ride and headed home via Gnangara Rd. Ken and myself left the lead group whom proceeded to cross the GN Hwy and head for the hills at Muchea.
