Exclamation Official Announcement



The official 2013 flyer is up here!

Quick highlights for 2013:
  • there's now a charging station at the rally start!!!
  • I will attempt to make a shortcut for the electric cars to bring the distance closer to ~120km
  • if you're coming from out of town, someone will find you some couch/therm-a-rest to crash on
  • this coincides, as usual, with F1 weekend, so feel free to make a weekend out of it. I will happily take people out on the town Friday and Saturday night
  • update on route conditions and the shortcut by early-mid May

Instructions are fully bilingual and anyone can easily follow them (no experience required). The route is selected to make hypermiling challenging, not for optimal results. The top results have always been achieved by a combination of technique and vehicle efficiency. The results from previous years say a lot about that. We measure improvement over EPA too, so that's a category someone could win even in a Hummer...

Looking forward to seeing many of you again and many for the first time!

Jeff
