What Bozo cant tell the difference between a Harley and a BM

Another big roll up today. Good to see Survey Ross back safe and sound from his Pilbara kangaroo jump height research project. Great to see DFS back on a bike.

Eleven riders and a pillion braved the chilly weather to head to Dwellingup. Nev, Andrew, Kim, Clayton, Frank, Just John, GS Bill + Trish, Prof Orcha Dist, His Royal Griceness, Nannup Nick and Bozo took a run past Canning Dam and down Bedfordale Hill to get to Byford before running up Netteleton Road and down Kingsbury Drive. The day seemed to belong to kamikaze kangaroos, ducks and parrots. There were a lot of other bikes out and it was easy to get groups mixed. At North Dandalup, a spotlight covered Harley was confused by the ride leader with Nannup Nick's BMW GS and the group headed up the hill unaware that the tail end Charlie was still some way up the road.

An enjoyable run through Lane Poole Reserve and down Nanga Brook Road was interrupted by the sight of an ambulance surrounded by motorcycles. The rider seemed OK. The run home deviated to Burnside Road and then took Patterson Road, Corio Road, Hopeland Road and Rapids Road before finishing up on Thomas Road just out of Byford.

My thanks and apologies to Nannup Nick for acting as Tail End Charlie only to be stranded by the group being led off prematurely.

A lot of good roads with surprisingly little traffic. The ducks flying up from roadside flooding added a bit of adrenalin to the journey.

Bozo chose a mix of different types of roads, some open, some forested, some in the hills and some on the plain, and it added up to make a great day out where the sum is greater than the parts. My personal highlight was a black cockatoo flying alongside for a few hundred metres, effortless as you please. The jalapeno sausage roll at Dwellingup was pretty good too. Thanks to Bozo for planning and leading this one, another top day.
