we might want to have one run that is on the order of 4 or more hours run time at 70 mph [250 miles long] this would make the margin of error smaller, although the ride would be tougher.
That would be quite the run, but it would not really reflect most people's typical riding. Maybe we should do 2 100mi runs on consecutive days with the bikes on lockdown between, so that we have to include a cold start. that would get us a better average.
