Two Rocks Explorer 30/08/09
Start point: Peak Petrol Station, Cnr Katanning and Guildford Rd, Bayswater.
Meet: 1030hrs
Depart: 1100hrs
Pace: Awesomely Italian Scooterish.
This ride had been planned around an extended route that was subsequently found to be excessively long and perhaps too complicated for the noobs. This left us with the option of cancelling or taking the original route that included the much discussed ‘Corner O’ Doom’. At least 30 people voted for this destination so cancelling was out of the question and given that the corner in question is probably the only excitement on an otherwise dull ride, we have decided to go with the original route.
The destination is Two Rocks and I will be returning to the start point via the West Coast Hwy and Reid Hwy after a suitable break if people wish to join me. Others might want to choose the Freeway home rather than crawl along with the Sunday beachcombers and as such; the official ride ends at Two Rocks.
Everyone knows where we’re going so I will be sending route maps out to all that post “In”. Nobody should get lost on a ride like this but do mark corners for the person behind you. We also need a TEC (I believe Koola has first dibs) to sweep up any stragglers and I would also like to ask that someone go ahead and man the ‘Corner O’ Doom’ so all can pass safely. Maybe someone who knows the road well can do this? I will be doing the usual ‘choking’ of the group at the major intersections.
As we are barely escaping the ‘burbs, I will not be utilising a support vehicle for the ride but one will be available should someone have the temerity to fall off on my shift.
Questions are more than welcome.
