Popped into Squires early (9:30 ish) on way to coast, it was already packed as was Fridaythorpe. Filled tank to brim in Leeds and did 90 miles to coast (riding hard and fast, have to keep up with 2 R1's, a Fireblade and Gxsr). My bike is ridden close to its limit and yet my petrol light never came on before I filled up again in Brid. It took £9 to fill back to brim. The Fireblade (54 model and every extra, power commander etc) took £10 so that means the Storm is more ecomical than the Blade which came as a surprise. Going to Spain for a couple of weeks in June and was worried about making everyone else stop for juice before they needed to but seems I'll get 100 miles out of a tank so I'm quite happy. I thought I'd be lucky to get 80 miles trying to keep up with the racers.

I'm pretty sure thats the route we take to Stamford Bridge, then 166 to coast. I've usually got my eyes fixed on the brake lights of the bike in front of me to notice the villages we're passing. One of the roads we sometimes take has a beware of Frogs sign on it, wasn't aware that many of our European neighbours have relocated to this part of the north.
