284.46 |
3.31 |
0 | Somewhat warmer and pretty dry weather. ~100km 2-up, the rest is normal commute. 70-90/100 P&G with some 120-130 peaks. Back to the original route: I don't want to FAS with cold engine now, and it's shorter and steeper. I regularly use heated gloves now. | 85.93 |

156.83 |
1.585 |
0 | New, somewhat longer route to prolong first FAS - it's better in absolute terms, not just at the average. At least at dawn, without traffic.
Less high-speed pulses (~120km/h max at that), mostly 70-90 or 70-100, took advantage of a few more highway FAS opportunities.
Filled with carrera 100 (I don't think it matters much). | 98.94 |

0 | 22km city practicing, 400+km freeway commuting. Took an unorthodox approach on P&G - no strict 70/90 (though the majority is 70/90), many pulses went over 100, a few even reached 130. | 91.22 |

327.4 |
3.66 |
0 | Basically all of the 526.9km (327.4 miles) was hypermiling. Cruising speed was usually ~45-50mph. Backroads and deserted superslabs are good and safe this way, but freeway with traffic is a bit of strain on the nerves... Contains one experiment with EOCing a 2km+ long downhill stage, can't be repeated too often, I think. More and more frequent P&G downhills. | 89.45 |
| 08/12/2009 |
306.52 |

0 | Most of it is a trip to Hegyestu"+Tihany. Techniques: all of the above, except that I was seldom hiding behind the windscreen. Many twisty roads, and a little bit of gravel road in a forest. | 85.14 |
| 08/09/2009 |
302.73 |
3.53 |
0 | Personal best so far. (Soft-)Neutral coasting seems real good... I'm curious how much it wears the clutch plates. On my last trip I totally cramped myself on this otherwise comfortable bike to reduce air drag, my neck and back are a bit stiff after one hour... maybe I've gone too far? Usual speed is around 80km/h now (~50mph), I can't get much slower in 5th gear. It mightily reduces room for target driving... | 85.75 |
| 08/03/2009 |
298.88 |
3.61 |
0 | Usual commuting + some light touring, <10% real city ride, little stop&crawl.
Experimenting with neutral coasting, hill assisted pulse&glide. Feels a failure with both bikes, air drag slows them down very quickly at highway speeds. Gliding down on hills at city speeds in neutral feels very OK though.
Contains some safe distance drafting too. Not THAT good if I'd like to break my personal record, I can go slower (and with less throttle) without drafting... | 82.79 |
