Forest Highway - Perth to Bunbury

Meets Perth
1

G’day

The word around the place is that there will be a ride (two actually) of the new Perth to Bunbury Highway.

There is a thread on the ride in the Australian Cycling Forums. This was posted today:

I phoned the Southern Gateway Alliance this afternoon regarding the bike ride and I have confirmation on the 20 September, that there will be 2 rides with the first being a family ride of an unknown distance and secondly a return ride of the complete length of the new road :smiley:

The complete details are still to be released, so times and starting locations will be released then, and may be found on http://www.sgalliance.com.au/npbh/release.html

Might be a good fixie ride.

Andrew

Im down for it - n have a vehicle suitable as a crash car for maybe 4 or 5 bikes?

… Though yet to figure the logistical challenge of driving/riding …

Unless it’s a return ride?

Still no word on the SG Alliance site - typical roadworkers… Hhmmmphf…!
