Truckers' strike/slowdown

sycamore, is your actual mileage calculated by miles driven/amount of gas to fill the tank? If so, there are several sources for uncertainty and error, particularly if you are only using a small part of the tank. It's better if you keep track over a whole tank, or even several tanks in a row, and try to fill always to the same point (this is easier with a motorcycle than with a car), at the same time of day, same station, etc. for consistency.

I didn't trip over the inconsistency too much...but it piqued my curiosity. Once I saw the inconsistency go the opposite way for highway driving, it didn't even bother me any more. I figured there were some issues such as you mentioned that are totally over my head.
