Getting back to the point of this....
I'm planning to do a 1500 mile run in < 24 hours.
Doing this requires planning of gas stops down to details like: the Interstate Exit Number, the right Station location off that exit, etc.
I like to plan a max of 12 minutes per stop for Fuel, Stretch, Bio, and food/drink replenish.
However some stops are simply Gas 'n Go, which can be done in < 6 minutes.
For stops Speeds are reduced, time keeps ticking... consider time to get off the highway, get to the station, do the credit card thing, fill up, get the receipt, stretch/bio, get geared/cranked up, get out of the station, and get back on to the highway and established at the intended speed.
I try to eat and drink while moving.
1500 miles / 24 hours = 62.5 mph minimum moving average for 24 hours.
Example...
assume the speed limit is 70 mph.
So, let's ride for 2 hours at 70 mph and go 140 miles.
62.5 miles per hour mininum is 125 miles.
140 - 125 = 15 miles, which allows 12.85 minutes for a stop.
Variances are the distance between the gas stops... some may be 120 miles apart, other times they may be 180 miles... do we have the mpg range for it? Would mode 'C' help at all ?
It's fun to plan, fun to ride...
