70 Dude i hover at 90 no messing the whole way and continually try to beat previous records. My best or worst was on my 600 yammy, i totally lost it on the way home and thrashed the bejesus out of it all the way back. Topped out at around 136-137 and was overtaking on the baubles on the other side of the white line near the barrier Got back in around 1hour 40 mins when it normally took 2hours 5 mins
Killed the bike though as after that it had no compression and never started again Car wise i sit at a ton or 90 but i am guilty of bullying my way through and driving like a dick. Timing is what counts though and i am fortunate enouth to go when i want rather than mixing with the rush hour. Knowing the journey so well i time it right and usually never have to lift apart from the 6 scameras in each direction. In all the times i've done the journey and i have been doing it for over ten years now i have only crashed once and that was 10 yards from my front door would you believe. I had raced all the way down had my visit and then raced all the way back. Before i had the drive parking in the street was crap and i had to drive past my house and turn round. I went past my house turned round and then got slammed by some other young fast dude Knocked the **** out of me it did, wierd though a i had just done a 300 miles round trip race and then get slammed 10 yards from my front door. |
