Thanks for the fuel consumption explanation, Jim. I guess I knew some of that, but as berner said, you put it into a nice tight package that is easily remembered. As a rule, all of my trail rides on weekends feature at least one refreshment stop at a cafe, bakery, or ice cream shop - so I never run out of gas (bonk). The best rides start about 20-30 miles from the refreshment stop, and go another 20-30 afterwards.

Here is what a typical fuel stop looks like:



Huevos Rancheros is considered Premium Fuel on one of my rides. However, emissions can be problematic...
