Well we started out again WA time everyone was up before 6.00a.m. so some headed for Mackas some had brekkie in their rooms, some just kept sleeping. We all knew it was going to be an easy day, BUT it wasn't.
Tony and I had to go to the dealer in Albany 8.00a.m. to get a new tyre for Tony's Bike. Robert also had to get a new battery fitted. Around about 9.45a.m. we were off and running to Margaret River. There was a couple of groups riding on, we met up with one group at the Tall Trees at Valley of the Giants near Walpole.
Well what an experience the tallest trees ever -- The Tingle Trees they have a 600 metre walk of steel trusses. Quite an experience. If the photos are not on here tonight I will get them on in the next couple of days. From there we headed to Walpole to fuel up and lunch stop. Might I say the rain has not stopped from The Valley of the Giants to Walpole. From Walpole we headed off to Margaret River, through Pemberton, Nannop, Witchicliffe then finally reaching Margaret River around 6.00p.m. We were out on the main road for a while as we could'nt find the Riverview Tourist Park. We eventually found it, when the support vehicle came along and punched in the NavMan. The Whole time from Valley of the Giants we were rained on, rained on, rained on, and rained on some more. Well we were saturated through. After sorting out the accomodation we headed off for Zanadu Winery, where the first nights Rally was taking place. Announcement was made that the 2012 Rally would be held in Canberra. And a Big Happy Birthday to my gorgeous daughter Bree. XXX
