I wont be able to make it, funds are a bit tight this week. Car rego, water rates, council rates, tickets to Thailand..

That last excuse gets a lot of sympathy

How many more times will Brock mention the Thailand trip - informal votes only

Brock · « **Reply #13 on:** February 03, 2012, 12:16:23 PM »

Thailand Glen....

Pay attention or you will sit outside in the corridor for the rest of the day....

Malcolm6112 · « **Reply #14 on:** February 03, 2012, 07:46:07 PM »

Cancelled? WTF?

Leave pass organised, Fuel in the tank. Beautiful day of 27, and overcast. What more can you ask for?

I've been looking forward to this all week.

See ewes on Monday.

Streak · « **Reply #15 on:** February 03, 2012, 07:51:38 PM »

Malcolm,My Leave pass wouldn't extend to Bridgetown but would be interested in a shorter trip. If you are interested in a shorter one give me a ring at home on Saturday and see if we can organise something .

Brock · « **Reply #17 on:** February 03, 2012, 10:54:40 PM »

Discovered my rear tyre is WTL (worn to limits), it may have 400ks left in it, but not enough for bridgetown n back plus another week of work.

I am trying to source some PR3s, as it looks like Z6s are finished and Z8s dont fit.

Good idea Glen. After work Saturday, I'll give you a call.

Ray and Turtle are you guys still up for a short ride? Seems a shame to waste a beautiful day

There are lots of country towns hanging out to get a visit from a load of bikers.

text, call or email my phone. 0411460126 malcolm.smith6112@gmail.com

Malcolm

I'm happy to still meet up as I'm going to head south with my mate on his FJR1400 just meet at 7.30 byford Caltex you can head back to Perth at any stage no prob short or long ride as anyone can peel off
My number is 0413492011

Malcolm6112 · « **Reply #20 on:** February 05, 2012, 07:07:05 PM »

Sunday morning arrived crisp and inviting.
Three turned up at the Caltex in Byford. Turtle, a.k.a. Ben on a 1100p, Simon on a FJR 1400 and myself, 1300a.

Left at 7.50am, headed south down South West Highway.

Turned left at the Collie turnoff. Up through the Collie hills, past Wellington Dam. When we got to Collie we turned south towards Bridgetown/ Donny Brook. The air temp gauge on my bike moved between 15 and 20 degrees as we moved through the hills.
Lunch was at 12. It was amazing to see so many bikes on the road. I even got passed on the crest of a hill, with double white lines by a lady from Warnbro Wanderers.

Simon left from here to go home.
Ben and I continued on our adventure.
Next stop Gnomesville.

We parked up the bikes and went for a wander. When we got back to the bikes, mine had been taken over by gnomes. Obviously the blue colour attracted them.

Could this be one of the moderators?

Time to hit the road. Headed north via South West Highway again.
Total kms 560.

Thanks Turtle.

Thanks Malcolm for attending the ride today I must say the weather in Perth today was just perfect for a ride down south

Can we let a Yamaha FJR rider on trips lol might need a vote on this might make Simon wear a Honda ST club shirt on trips if he attends
