I had to look it up, but you're right, its only 20km each way with an overnight stop in between! Most of us commute further than that. :lol:

I will make sure I don't drive behind you Brett so I will not know if you break down and keep going! It is my weekend off too. You'll be right Brett we always look after each other on our Runs. I always carry a boot ful of tools and spares any way. I call it my mobile parts shop. It will be a great weekend always enjoyable.

It ended up doing 50km. No worries :-)

sat at 100kph. So happy, just have to work out why the Speedo is accurate upto 60kph then swings wildly around to 85mph at 62mph
