G'day all,
With the weekend coming up (and summer round the corner) I thought I'd ask for people's opinions and suggestions on best driver's roads within easy reach of Perth CBD. I don't know if anyone has come up with a similar list before, but always keen to hear of fun places to take the 156 for a spin (within posted speed limit of course!).
Needn't be huge long routes, just places where there is a reasonable mix of dips, hills, curves, corners and straights that don't take hours to get to - and preferably not too much traffic! Bit of scenery also helps.
To get things started:
Jarrahdale Rd (between SW Highway and Albany Highway).
Old Yanchep Road - Two Rocks via Breakwater Drive (starting from OYR turnoff at Neaves Road at eastern end).
Poohbah
It has always been a favourite and now gets closed and used as a stage for Targa West, but Mundaring Weir Road between Mundaring and Kalamunda is amazing. Especially through Piesse Brook. There are hills, dips, a couple of hairpins and long curves. You don't have to be going too fast to enjoy it.
Cheers for that - will check it out.
Should organise a Sunday cruise around these roads for the West Australian Alfa Club, Colin.
