A massive group of pewter plate aficionados headed to Guilderton as a contribution to the Dirk Hartog Anniversary. Wightman had prepared a lecture on the voyage that was dispensed to the ice cream eating throng on the verandah overlooking the violent Indian Ocean.

The 16 strong group had travelled by the Swan Valley, Warbrook Road, Neaves Road and Old Yanchep Road. Graham liked Old Yanchep Road so much he turned around and did it again.
DFS and Swampy headed to Two Rocks, Goldie offered to see if there was a problem whilst the remaining 12 bikes battled drivers that hogged the road to get to Guilderton.

Goldie arrived on his own after checking the road back to Yanchep Park.
Wightman, Jack and David took their airheads and headed home.
BillB, GS Bill + Trish, Ross + Patsy, Jens, German Paul, Eddy, Kim and Bozo headed to the Lancelin Tavern to be joined by Goldie.
It was very pleasant sitting in "Australia's best beer garden".
The group split again with GS Bill + Trish, Ross + Patsy, Jens, Kim, Eddy and Bozo heading to Gingin via KW Road, Sappers Road, Orange Springs Road and the Brand Highway. Another stop at the @ Café before heading home via Bindoon and the Chittering Valley.
A reasonable length ride with lots of humour. Sorry to Swampy for not letting him know that DFS was only travelling part of the journey and thanks to Goldie for making sure nothing was amiss.
