Puzzle 86

I recently travelled from my home town to a distant music concert, on a pedal tricycle, of all things! My wonderful, three-wheeled tricycle.

I knew that the epic 2,345 mile trip would wreak havoc on the tyres, but luckily I took along 4 spares!

Instead of waiting for any single tyre to fail, I decided that I would rotate the tyres evenly, making sure that by the end of the trip, all seven tyres had travelled exactly the same distance.

What was the distance that each tyre travelled?

Boat Club Boats - Logic Puzzles

At the local model boat club, four friends were talking about their boats.

There were a total of eight boats, two in each colour: red, green, blue, and yellow.

Each friend owned two boats, and no friend had two boats of the same colour.

Alex didn't have a yellow boat.
Billie didn't have a red boat, but did have a green one.
One of the friends had a yellow boat and a blue boat.
Another friend had a green boat and a blue boat.
Charlie had a yellow boat.
Drew had a blue boat, but didn't have a green one.
Can you work out which friends had which coloured boats?
