I must be just mildly insane. I average 36. Actually feel good about it. My truck gets 12.
I knew it!!!!! Maxtog is the Scooter Guy!!!
the Scooter Guy?You know the scooter guy.
I'm with you on the insane part and the average of ~36. I don't know what trucks y'all are driving but my BFT with a Duramax w/Allison transmission gets 12 while pulling a 4 ton 5th wheel! ~20 without.
You know the scooter guy.
And I know you had to weld on a extra large launcher.
ATGATT Max?
Wow, I've never kept a spreadsheet of a ride. What do you do for a living?
- everyone has his own style.
- motorcycling (imho) is about freedom and the bend to bend excitement infused with fear (and sometimes sheer terror) when we ride faster than we really should.
- as for spreadsheets for fuel and mileage , if i start doing that , I will probably stop riding.
- and maybe go play golf or something..

I get the most joy out of long distance rides when I do the least or even zero planning. Take a week or 2 off, the morning of the first day pull out a map and go "let's try this road...". Don't have any idea where I'm going to stop until I get thirsty in the afternoon. Pull out the map, look for a reasonable town go there and find a motel stumbling distance from some brew pub or other watering hole. I'm almost always with other bikes with less range then my C14 so completely don't care about gas mileage.
