    Ride rided, new find route interesting.

    Pinno, it's front and rear flasher season, full sun to full shade difficult for drivers and riders.

    Refuel, rehydrate and retire to the shade time.

    I do have a rear but not a front.
    Double rear flasher for me on country lanes. Full sun to tree cover shade whilst wearing shades is a censored

    I don’t mean hard for cyclists but hard for drivers to see you.

    Any of you heathens driven a prius it's like driving a rice pudding. Bloody horrible.

    I’d have no problem with a Prius but I wouldn’t buy new and second hand have normally been flogged to death as taxis (a good sign they are decent cars) and the boot space is a little small.
    What I should have said is there boring and wooden to drive, no fun whatsoever.
    Useful money saving reliable tool though.

    I posted as much a few years ago when suddenly seeing a couple of cyclists in the shade coming the other way as I was driving. I've used lights when cycling year round since.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Amen to that Oxo, totally uninspiring blandmobiles.

    I'll take the M3 (or equivalent). Granted, the Prius was better if you wanted to give off an air of saintly smugness, hence Toyota Pius :smile:

    My 911 would do 38mpg @ 85mph and 18mpg pootling around urban roads averaging 22mph.

    But what about keeping up with a Pius?

    Sounds about right though. I've seen mpg in the low to mid teens around town in mine and just over 35mpg on the motorway keeping to the limits in 9th gear :o (In a heavier and less aero car than yours).
