Decided to skip the organised SARCC Perfect ride today. Too flat and also a serious risk of a dust storm in the afternoon.
I was going to do a previous Sunday Route from Norton Summit including as much gravel as possible - but noticed there was little traffic about especially donar-bikes, which I hate. So I tried more bitumen. I think I only saw maybe three donar-bikes all morning, all solo. None of the packs of Harley and moto-guzzis riders - some of which I think have a death wish. The reason for this I believe is the fact that these joy riders are wusses / fairweather riders and South Australia allows them to only register their bikes for 6 months. I imagine they do November to April inclusive and then store their bikes in their sheds to droole over for the rest of the year. So May to Oct there are many fewer on these roads.
