100km without getting my arse off the bike

[bosslady]

And thats you averaging 80kph.
Can I ask what speed you reached on this solo effort and what speed you found was comfortable to sustain?

Is it? dunno, just typed it into Google maps and that's what it came up with

Speed reached? the limit of course Mr. Officer............. max only 110kmph at about 7000rpm, it red lines at 8500. Constant and comfortable speed was 100kmph, was trying to keep it legal, my bikes not that fast and just keep with the flow of traffic. Sometimes 80-90kmph but that was only to keep the same following distance since the cages kept slowing down... speeding up... slowing down... etc etc.

I don't think I've been that far up the north island, I'll put that on my list for one day soon
240km, 3 hours, that'd be a big ask for a wee bit lol

LESS than a tank of gas each way. Won't even need reserve ...

To average 100 km/hr ... you might need more than a GN250. To average (over any real distance) that needs speeds of 120 plus.

To average 80 on such a ride will definitely be ok on your GN.

IF you're riding anywhere through built-up areas and/or traffic you have to be honkin' along to keep an average of 80kph...

Nah it's OK girly, I know you need to put on a 'show' for the boy's....now head off to the kitchen, or at this time of night, the bedroom to provide 'Him' with the correct 'entertainment' appropriate to the time of day..... as you were

Gee thanks Mark for adding "old" and "windy" to my list of attributes! What a mate!

Aaarrrr-oooooooh!!!!

Now let's stop taking this thread off-topic or I might just have to infract us all; then it will be all round.

So where were we? Ah yes, encouraging bosslady to enjoy her riding, to not push herself too hard too quickly, and be ever alert to other road users - some of whom should not even leave their houses each day let take charge of a vehicle.
