Just remember to BYO tubing then!... Dunno who it was on the red Duc last week I met in Akaroa, but they were in the same boat (oh noes, station closed) and same thing then could have tried a siphon, but no pipe... I think they got back!

Yeah man, it was f@kn awsome!

Nothing ya need to know really mate. Best idea is to make sure you have gassed up before the ride. Feel free to ride where ever you feel comfortable in the group. There is always someone at the front setting a pace but if you just want to take ya time we have a back marker also just to keep an eye on things. Its a great ride tomorrow night! Welcome to the group

Don't want to get the suzi all stone chipped so you buggers better not practise your 'drifting' skills on the loose infront of me

Anyway, might see ya's, will see how brave I am tomorrow.

100K round trip from Amberley and back again according to Mr Google, shouldn't you be sweet with your reserve ? Can you strap a 5L fuel can on somewhere ? Failing that as wisely said bring some garden hose to be on the safe side.

Given the open road cruising speed you should be sweet

I don't know the mileage (so to speak) but I also have a 10L tank (granted I'm on a 250) and I fuel up before getting to the car park, then I fuel up in Amberely on the way back. Would probably be able to do the whole thing on one tank but don't want to get caught out. The petrol station (I think it's the Shell) is open as we go back through!
