Just got in from a " very typical" morning ride... 43.3 miles. Rode the CB 1100. Paid attention to several things. Highest speed was 60 mph. Highest rpm was 3250. I went 12 miles before I saw an oncoming car, 19 miles before finding a car headed the same direction I was riding. I pulled a U turn and rode another 13 miles before getting behind another vehicle. Followed them 1 1/2 miles and they pulled off on a side road and I never was bothered by another car for the rest of the ride. Never saw a car in my rearview mirrors. Lots and lots of curves and elevation changes. What a great place to live and ride. Outside temperature right now is 70.5 degrees. I'm now at 17, 016 miles for the year.
Put the CB away, getting out the Majesty and heading to a pharmacy about 12 miles away to pick up a script. So far the rain has held off.
Henrik I have ridden 225 miles and still had over a half gallon left according to refill calculations. I figured safe outside limit 240 miles, but I don't want to push lol
Btw Ridem32 over on the UK board had gotten over 62 mpg I believe and several here has gotten over 60. Of course some have gotten under 40 as well lol
