Title: FarRide west 27
Post by: Wombat on April 08, 2015, 12:52:55 PM: Anybody planning for the FarRide West 27 to Kookynie?

My basic plan is north to Mount Magnet, east to Leinster then south for lunch at Kookynie. :hatwave May carry on for a SS1600 or home via Corrigin and Brookton for a SS2000 or whatever they call it now with a camp out of Boorabbin. :grin Depends on the size of the lunch of course. >:()

Cheers

Post by: Wombat on July 02, 2015, 10:23:06 AM: Just a following up statement on this ride. :grin My fuel from empty, really really empty to full was 26.98l so if I had the extra litre that is supposed to be in there :|||| I could have nearly made it to Coolgardie as that is downhill as well and I was pointing in the right direction. :think1

:wht11
Oh and great ride Pezzz and luckily we didn't have any UFO's or bombers overhead to spot in the dark :eek
Maybe sell the idea to the military for night recons just in case :phone

Post by: Brock on July 02, 2015, 05:59:33 PM: You should have filled to just about over flowing, and you would have been fine. Most I have put in is 27.5 L...

:eek :eek
Title: Re: FarRide west 27
Post by: Pezzz on July 03, 2015, 10:49:36 AM: I put in 27.59L at Kalgoorlie. Looks like I was running on vapours. But that was full to the very top.
