Andy & Cary's Excellent Kawhia Caper!

[Taz]

From there it was home going our separate ways, Cary to Otahuhu and I to Waiuku. Got home, greeted family, greeted dog (dog was the most excited to see me) had shower, washed bike, bounced on trampoline with the kids .
Cary's $49 rear tyre is now dead having done at least 1500kms for around a third of a cent per Km. Not bad eh?

Total km's for trip was 660km for me, slightly more for Cary.

Ummm, I got my figures a little wrong, seems the Innova tyre only did 934k. still, $54 delivered......(be trying the Mitas next)

I'm sure your speedo reads fast, I've checked mine to GPS and came out quite close and I only did 624k all up.

That's great fuel mileage from a bike that normally only knows one speed.

You ASS - U - ME he was talking about you Andy......

(no need to confirm Brent )

Was that from home? Haven't checked mine with the gps for a while Might have to check and adjust the wheel size setting in the speedo. Tho kast time I checked it with the 21" front wheel it was pretty close.

It was an excellent ride. But I had thought it was beginning rain while cary was patching his tube...... But he was just sweating
