Cool! Me too. Today marks a month since my last fillup. Normally I refill every two-three weeks or so. Today I also crossed the 300 mile mark on my electric/human parallel hybrid bicycle. If I had not driven the 340 miles I drove on the El Mirage land speed racing event trip, I would be many miles from another fill. In a few days I guess I might need a fill, and it might be the last of the summer! At a rate like this, I'll get my costs for building the bike back in two years or so.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
