Who's coming along? Leave 9 am from Catalanos, head off for smoke break at Noble Falls, then steam off towards Wongan Hills area. Looking at about 400-500 kms round trip. There's a bottle of Rockingham Cellars red wine for the best written story submitted afterwards and a white wine for the best photo submitted, to be awarded at the next General Meeting. The theme of the run is "smell the flowers". This will be a mostly bitumin trip but avoiding major highways, where possible. It is not going to be a hell run, so come along! John :mrgreen:

Obviously, if its pi**@ng down with rain we might have to reconsider.

Suggestions welcome.....

Sounds great to me.
If it was any longer in distance, I might have to stop for fuel :lol:
I'll bring the camera.

This sounds like a nice ride. What do you mean "most of the trip is on Bitumin" : and how much is off road

Close to 100%. Sometimes, in those back of beyond little wheatbelt towns, one can encounter short stretches of gravel, though its generally very good quality and easy to negotiate. Then, of course, there may be a field of Patterson's Curse or Canola that we might need to enter, to get that winning pic..........

What do you mean " might need to enter " shouldn't that be " Will enter "

We all know you'll go in Mike. The others may sit on the sidelines and laugh while you dig yourself out....
Surprise your wives with a posy of pretty flowers on your return!
