Tommys Report
We all met up at Micks place nice and early got the bikes unloaded and gear on then a brief riders meeting as there were no new riders and a very vague description of the route we would take not that it mattered as Mick Jacko Lee and Pete appeared to know were we were going anyway .
A short ride to the start of the nice hard packed sand NOT long straight sandy tracks as fast as you dare go then all of a sudden a corner and you realize you forget how to get around it with out burying the front wheel in the sand or is it only me ? . Then Mick takes us up a very steep and bogy hill just to warm the bikes up a bit LOL.
Then down the other side and away we go with more of the same type of tracks and onto Bindoon for a refuel and a rest. Now its onto the single trails and Pee gravel we must have hit every trail in this area as we were riding around having a ball for hours. Carlo had a bit of an off at a hill as he went down he said he heard his Carlobone snap (he landed on a stick)
These tracks are great and can only get better if the RAIN ever comes we hit a few more hills but Mick was kind and took us round the easier way down the bigger hill not up it although there was still plenty of scary moments. On a track with some whoops KTMLee had some trouble with his bike it stalled and was flooding fuel through the carby so we took the tank off and were about to clean the float when Lee heard the tank hissing so he loosened the fuel cap and the fuel exploded out of the tank and all over him. The breather must have been blocked and the fumes were building up pressure.
Time was getting on so we decided to head of to Gingin to meet up with our better halves at the pub for a nice hot shower and a beer or two.
The food was great and the company excellent what a perfect day.

Day 2 came around all too quickly as some of us were a bit late getting to bed you can guess who (2 of the bar staff were from Ireland).
Straight into the long fast fence line tracks to get our heads cleared but very mindful of the Roos that are always waiting to greet you in the morning. When Mick said we would ride through the universe I thought he was still drunk but he wasnt kidding as we went past the gravity center. We had a fuel stop in the bush now that is forward planning by a real pro.
Now across to the beach for some fun in the sand dunes but first we had a few 4X4s to avoid and as usual you always meet them on blind corners. Mackley got some barbed wire raped around his back wheel which whipped around and got him on the backside.
Carlo had an off were the bike ended up parking its self and he went on past the corner man by himself.
We played in the dunes all the way down the coast stopping at the top of the higher ones the get some fresh air and to enjoy the views.
All good things have to come to an end sooner or later and before you know it we were back in the northern suburbs and back at Micks house were he toped the day off with an icy cold beer. I think it was one too many for the guy in the funny hat and shorts.

A very well lead ride by Mick as usual he puts a lot of effort into it and never asks for anything back. Thanks Mate from all of us.
