Nice one!

Ek sou van jou verwag om die tripmeter op 110 954.4km te reset net vir ekstra effek! Dan sou die onderste vier ene die bad luck gedraai het!

Onthou nou met jou volgende een! Wink clown

Muddy, legend has it that, in cricket, when 111,222 or 333 etc is reached, you should raise you foot off the ground until the next run is scored.
But, that should not be a problem for you, as you will be on the bike for the next 100 metres. Bad luck gone!! cheers

Congratulations! cheers
Maybe you should be more worried about the dust/sand accumulation in the rev counter!?

Net bietjie minder van die eerste deel van die woord dan is die kussinkie nie nodig nie. Vorige LT op 95 000km ingetrade - was ook amper daar. Nou baie ver daarvan af.
