As part of my planning for the Dreaming Tour, a ride from Darwin to Perth keeping off the highways as much as possible I hunted around for books including camping books which I hoped would give me some idea as camping options and more importantly access to water. One of those books that I came across was S & S Collis, the guide to Free-Camping in the North of WA. The copy I obtained from the local library was the 5th edition published in 2010 which includes GPS co-ordinates. I am glad I found it in the library as that gave me a chance to check it out before deciding whether to buy it or not. I didn’t buy it which pretty much sums up my view of the book.
On February 14, 2012 I experienced an incident which I consider to be dangerous passing by an operator of a CTI Xpress truck registration number 1DJQ 144. This incident occurred on West Coast Drive, North Beach on a single lane 50 km/h road which wanders along the northern coast of Perth, Western Australia.

I have regularly ridden this road over the past three or more years in both directions as part of my commute to Joondalup. While I have experienced some incidents at roundabouts mainly to the north and south of the location of this incident, this is only the second dangerous or close pass that I have experienced which I felt warranted further attention. Hundreds of vehicles pass myself and other cyclists on this road daily without it seems trouble. A little bit of patience, a bit of care and consideration and a safe speed go a long way. Not however for this CTI Xpress operator who saved a whole four seconds passing me like this.
