What was your average mph ?

Dont know about average mph mike,but we wern't hanging about.
Accelarating to over the ton in a few stretches ,and that wasn't the motorway

Its a very popular route for bikers.

From Oban , past the Green Welly Stop at Tyndrum , on to Crainlarich , right down Loch Lomondside over the Erskine Bridge ,on to M8 towards Glasgow, then M77 up into Ayrshire (home).- ( poss 20-25 miles of motorway).
Also a couple of wee local trips after that,before filling up.

Met Cupasoop for our run today and filled it up at 138 miles before we set off.

It honestly seems better on juice since i removed the baffles

well my final tank top-up on sunday's run out was at 310 miles, Â£11.70 adding up to Â£32.80 total. don't have a calculator handy and no idea how much fuel costs per gallon, but that's pretty close to 10p per mile - so all those of ya in me slipstream must be well in pocket
