101.6MPG...
« on: 29 June 2008, 17:46:40 »
What I averaged going to and coming back from the lakes, including getting a little lost on the way home  ;D

£13.30 in fuel... covered just over 250 miles!

Was good :) I'll post up the few piccies I took (literally, 1 or 2) when I can be bothered going downstairs to find the cable for the camera!

I've done 100cc from Gloucester to Plymouth - but it was a bit faster than a CG125. Going the other way silly revs and speed down Telegraph hill

I thought 101MPG seemed to good for an Omega. Even a very very very very gently driven one. :y

Was from Northwich, not Liverpool :) Did have the offer from Pete to get a lift, but I was committed to take the bike, the only thing which did change was all the kit came back in Pete's car instead of on the back of the bike.

I've had me snooze now, just tucking into tea, although to be fair, I'd rather of stayed in Keswick for a few more days!

Hero... Me???  :o :o
