Cool The Flying Banana ……………

……………………… is off on her first mega trip since October 2019 this morning. It’s 186 miles to the Frimley breakfast meet. We will be delivering two front wings and some mirrored panels to a couple of members.

Trip is via A38-M5-A30-A303-M3 as far as junction 4.

So should you spot us don’t forget to give us a wave, toot your twin horns or flash those lovely lights.

Cool And home……………

…………………………… and she never missed a beat. Homeward we were in Warp Factor 3 mode.
A round trip of 372 miles. According to the info on the screen we got 42.7 mpg, will check this once I have filled her back up, and our average speed was 55.9.

I’m now back in love with Banana.

Great to see you and the Banana today Bob, thanks for bringing the wings. Hope you get home okay and don't have the absolutely torrential rain I had most of the way, still pouring here now.
Cheers Jennifer

Glad the yellow one has given you a good ride out and back. There is no doubt about it, when these motors are running ok, there is nothing to best them.
