Last time I tanked up, I decided to see how much I could get out of the old girl by riding more sedately. I'm not talking about purposely riding for 150 miles on a motorway at 56 mph - that would be pointless. I'm talking about typical rideouts but with sensible takeoffs, smooth acceleration and sticking rigorously to the speed limits.
150 odd miles later, I managed 47mpg. My worst was 36.7mpg, so not what you'd call a dramatic difference, but over time it'll add up. Will I stick to the new "eco" riding style - maybe!
