RUNAMUCK 30,180 Posted March 1 Author Report Share Posted March 1 Tis an easy ride for sure. After three days though, I'm glad I'll be riding home in a bouncy old 70 series cruiser. Lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Except I have a new battery, and even treated the A100 to a lush o-ring chain for max 'fuck you dust' factor. Eastcapescapade stretched my last high-grade Chinesium chain 15mm. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The longest stretch without fuel is Hanmer to Blenheim, approx 200km, second longest is St Arnaud to Hanmer of approx 120km. Day 2 has a few fuel stop options, longest is Renwick to Havelock which is approx 100km. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Should get away with a 5L jerry in support wag and can top off the tank at the lunch stop on day 1. Light adv scoot ready for action (nearly) 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
