On the drive back I was seeing well over 30 on the mpg counter.  Even taking it with a pinch of salt I reckon on a nice steady bit of highway it'll see an ok return  :smiley:

Cheers mate, I hope so too.  Hoping we raise some good money for charity along the way too.

If anyone has any good fund raising ideas I'd love to hear them  :smiley:
