When you look at your mileage, make note of elevation change, temperature, wind strength, and wind direction.
I find that an elevation change of 800 feet in 72 miles makes a difference of 4 to 5 MPG depending whether I'm going uphill or downhill. The seasonal changes in MPG in my gas log are almost all temperature because wind mostly averages out, although today's fill was unusually good because I had almost all tailwinds.
