Default Thank you (Riding style)

Right we've had lots of threads about fuel economy but I just want to say a big thanks to the people who added their valuable knowledge and different opinions about it.

I've been riding for 15 years now and have always been right hand happy whatever I've been riding.

I commute 110 miles a week in and out of London and have always struggled to make a tank last the full week.

Just by adopting what some of you said about short shifting, judging the lights so momentum is kept up and keeping the revs lower I'm now getting about 145 miles before the light comes on.

I'm amazed, I'm happy, I'm grateful.....

THANKS PEOPLE
