Ray Lindner found a huge heart can beat in the population of even the smallest town.

Along with a few friends I recently finished a ride in Margaret River, Western Australia.
In the lead up to the event we planned our route back to Melbourne to allow some adventure riding after the mind-numbing, black-top grind across the Nullarbor. That saw partners Leigh and Megan on a pair of F800GS BMWs, Phil on a 650 V-Strom and myself on a Triumph Tiger XC head northeast from Kalgoorlie to Laverton. From there we planned to ride The Great Central Road through to Yulara.
