Same here but I think I beat you, 200 miles to the tenner on the YBR :smt101

[Shellywoozle]

me too..... bike being serviced this weekend, finally new tyres and I will be binning the cage for the bike.

Car park been taken off us at work so this is cheaper and gets me to work quicker :-)

And Woozle will get more confidence and get her bike holidays in this year !!

Liking this! :smt023

Its annoying that Mrs Skips Astra Eco4 cage can do 200 miles on about £20 but its about as interesting as falling asleep to drive...

[Reeder]

I enjoy falling asleep

[Skip]

Its enjoyable knowing that you aren't spending too much getting to your destination but as far as the pleasure of actually driving it... ZZZzzz

is it just me or has anyone else noticed, petrol stations seem to increase petrol prices by 1p per litre every time you drive past :( its now getting to the point where people are getting forced off the road.

i think about journeys before i make them to try and save £££ unless its Darley, Mallory or Oulton lol :)

[kwak zzr]

insurance is up 30% but people are driving/riding less miles PA.

thats why i wish i kept my YBR for, 250 miles on 8 litres was the norm for me

[Ed]

I had to pay £1.42/l diesel today. That, or run out of fuel:rolleyes:

[kwak zzr]

My Beemer has done 12 miles this week lol

[Specialone]

Hey Daz, why don't you put some extra miles on your gixxer and come on my French trip in September ? :)
Can't post a link ATM .

F800GS = 100 miles per tenner, even with today's rapacious fuel prices and my 'heavy right hand'.
SV650 = Up on stands in the garage till I get time to repair the clutch.
Pitbike = Illegal.
Car = Written off.
Pushbike = Stolen.
Commute = too far to walk or casterboard (http://www.rollersurfer.com/products-gear/pro-longboard).

No contest, really. :D

[speedplay]

Am I the only one here who's car is cheaper to run than the bike?!
I get about 100 miles for 18 quid to fill the bike but the car does 600 for 60 quid.
Not to mention tyres are cheaper on the car too :)

[Specialone]

I get about 45mpg on average out of my TDI golf, not sure I get that out of the sprint unless I ride really economically.

No. Total running cost per mile on my old 1.3 Corolla was considerably less than my BMW bike. This is true of most middleweight bikes vs small cars.

[GixxerMatt]

my smart car does about 55-60 mpg if im a good boy my bike isnt far off that depending on the right wrist obv

[missyburd]
