I got 50 miles to the gallon in the Fit on my way through Nevada a couple of summers ago. <br /><br />And I hear ya on the water bar. I was worked up about it too after hearing people talk about it and seeing how far apart their hands were when they tried to convey how big the drop was, but in truth it was nothing! Super easy to roll down the left side. Glad you couldn't tell I was a bit timid the firs time down, too. He he. Thanks again for bringing my bike down!AFortnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12073903466472917594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7079567864685942232.post-2358398224961467142012-04-09T08:16:13.426-07:002012-04-09T08:16:13.426-07:00Glad to see I'm not the only one who ignores t...Glad to see I'm not the only one who ignores the roof rack when the bike can rdie inside.<br /><br />I hate to admit it but I almost ate it big time on the first lap on that water bar where the beginner guy earned the ambulance call. After I followed you on the second lap I felt silly for not seeing the easy line over that. I was able to relax a huge amount after that since 90% of my anxiety was focused on that stupid thing. So thanks for the unintentional lesson.RoyBobJohnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09290204085962248772noreply@blogger.com
