Don't lose heart, Man. Are the temps, around the zero-mark or less? I've been getting really crummy mileage, as is usually around this time of year. With the winter fuel, crappy rolling resistance, longer warm-up times, lower IATs, etc. it's tough. Apply those techniques in warmer weather, and I'm positive that the results will be a heckuva lot better.
