Late hours or early morning, Me, my GT, a good mate(or the missus if we can get someone to look after the kids)

From my house straight down Hepburn av to the coast, head south to Freo,East up Canning Hwy to the Freeway, South to the Roe Hwy exit, North up Roe Hwy all the way to Reid Hwy, right onto Alexander drive, Home. Great drive.

the zig zag in goosberry hill is always worth throwing in on a cruise if you have decent suspension
even though i am yet to take my falcon through the hills i have done it many times in my jap import

I'm a big fan of a cruise through the hills; out through the Zig Zag then on to Mundaring Weir, winding through the hills then coming out up top onto the highway heading east and heading on to Lake Leschenaultia for a BBQ etc

Then head back in land to Hillaries for some pool and cruise down the coast home lol

Best of all worlds!

When we were in WA we loved cruizin along Pt Walter. We would stop and walk along the sand bar and then keep going along the river. All the way from Freo to the Raffles. Great drive especially in Summer.

Done this a few times now and its pretty good for an mid-day arvo run and can start either end. Bullsbrook(counter meal) then get onto chittering rd and follow that onto julimar rd through to toodyay(stop for bar snacks) then down toodyay rd and turn off to go to the parkerville to finish it off. It's a bit of a drive and some of the roads are a bit rough but good way to pass a saturday or sunday.
