I went for an hour joyride on my motorcycle in my youth; twisting through back country roads and slowing through the occasional tiny town. When I pulled back into my driveway the odometer read that I had traveled 100 miles.
That was a very enjoyable drive, albeit dangerous.
As far as the economics of speeding are concerned, I find it rarely pays off on shorter trips, but certainly pays off on longer ones. I'll drive faster when I have passengers since the time lost traveling is multiplied by the number of people traveling, and the cumulative miles traveled per passenger makes the mpg less important.
