On the way back from the Murchison I dropped into the Lesueur National Park near Jurien Bay.
The first video shows the route on Cockleshell Road from Greenhead - Coorow Road. The gravel road is mostly straight and well formed with views to the coast. The only sketchy bit was where it passed through Cockleshell Gully as the recent rain had washed sand and clay onto the road.
The Park has brilliant views of the flat topped mesa of Mount Lesueur and an excellent one way 18 kilometres of winding bitumen road worth the $6 entry for motorcycles.

Well spotted. I missed that one in real time. Checking the video it is straight into the sun and only on one side of the road.
The Go Pro also makes travel look faster.

Re: Lesueur National Park near Jurien Bay
Despite having trouble with the spelling of the name of this park, I enjoyed riding through it, particularly the section of one way road from Mount Lesueur to Cockleshell Gully. It is a gentle downhill slope with lots of corners. There was a lot of sand and detritus on the road from the recent storm so I had to tip toe through a few corners.

Of rugged mountain ranges, of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons, I love her jeweled sea.
Her beauty and her terror, the wide brown land for me."
