What do you do with ppl who are full of it?

it reads as 20mins travel (30mins minus a 10min stop) 55km is easily possible in that time, I've done more than that myself (68km in 25mins ChCh to Chertsey pub which was a one off anger vent! and ChCh to Akaroa in sub 45min & thats 84km which was a regular saturday morning blast years ago) if the machines capable & the riders capable, its an easy achievement.

Yeah, 55k one way.. then you gotta get back again. that makes 110k in 20mins. that makes the 300+k average speed so you would probably want to be topping out about 350-360 to allow for the slowing for the tighter corners and turning round and the like.

As T.W.R. said it's 55 odd km from CENTRAL Rotorua to Te Puke town. Now we left from Rotokawa which is about 15km out of Rotorua CENTRAL! We stopped at a little place called Waitangi which is just out of Te Puke.(dont ask me how many km's 'cos I dont know) So the numbers do stack up.

thats way different maths again thats 40km in 20mins lols a real nana could do that if they were pissed

don't think anyone was talkin about a return journey but you've shown it there in your figure though, oneway average speed 175-180kmh lols what difficult about that ?

Then obviously your claim of Rotovegas - Te Puke is flawed and was misleading to us mere mortals. I know people who claim to have done Napier - Taupo in 45 minutes. This is a distance of approx. 145kms. What they did do was the Napier-Taupo Rd turnoff to the lakefront. That is a distance of about 115kms tops. Big difference.

No I was not claiming anything....was just trying to share an experience:spudwhat: You took it the way you wanted to, as me being full of shit.

[MSTRS:Me]

No. I referred only to a claim that I recalled was made that I don't think is possible. This thread is about people who make all sorts of claims re. their bike's speeds etc. I don't know why you seem to think I have 'got it in for you'. NOT SO. No need to be so sensitive or defensive. No disrepect is/was intended.

In which case I can go from Hastings District to Taupo District in a split sec.....I only need to travel the length of a signpost!!! If you were less generalistic in your original post (ie said what you meant) then I (and others) would have had nothing to *work with*

[Goblin]

Are you always so pedantic?

[MSTRS:Me]

Describe how you like. I choose to view it as saying what I mean, and being accurate in what I say.
