156.4 miles on 1.829 gallons. 85 MPG, very close to the last one at 84.84. That's local driving easy with a few times over 55 MPH, maybe once over 70. I drive past a concrete plant about 4 miles from home and I won't let people pass me when they can toss a rock in my face. Dump trucks and cement trucks in and out all the time. Tuck and go.

Garage won't come up to post the data, maybe later.

You're definitely doing better with this CBR250 than I can do with Teresa+K73 "rain tires" - I'll replace them when the front one wears off (won't really last longer than 10000km)... the rear will be replaced with the same type for the time being, the front easily outlives the current rear one... these things are... soft. Next time I'll go for durability, I hope the Michelin Pilot Roads have lower rolling resistance (it's said that they're good on wet road yet very durable). Metzeler Z6s were definitely better for FE and lasted for 28000km.

Oh, and I forgot, half of my rides are 2-up this summer.
