Thanks for the reply. I didn't know what was going on.
I know that Craig has argued this point in the past, stating it's only the cost of fuel or energy that matters, but I wish someone helping with posting results would calculate and post the mpg-e values for the electrics just so we can compare them from an energy standpoint. Energy density comparisons will always be the same unless a fuel itself changes, but cost comparisons are fleeting from one region to another and over time, and he never had any qualms showing us diesel and biodiesel mpg along with the cost comparisons; and I've never heard or read anyone arguing that the way KW/hrs are converted to a gasoline base equivalent was flawed in any way, so I'm not sure of the objection of including that information.
I think maybe the e-bikes may get more attention if people saw how they equated on a gallon of gas equivalent. I know I can figure it myself, but I can't show it to all that may be interested like the officials of the event can.
