Mike Treloar believes only a fool or a good mate would trust him to plan a ride. Steve Hayter must be a good mate, then. The pair headed off to enjoy south-western WA.

A large excavator had dragged a massive karri log across and blocked the road.

With no rush to get going it was late morning before the two of us left the south-west coast of WA. Fingers of cold crept through my jacket as we got into the groove.

Nannup, about two hours south, was our first stop – Steve needed caffeine and to check his phone.
