First long road trip and other adventures.

[Rolfe]

I remember stopping to charge at the Rheged Centre on the way to Halifax. I was pretty sure I had taken on enough charge to get there. But then ABRP insisted that I had to take the M62 and stop somewhere for another half-hour charge. Nothing I could do would change its mind.

In the end I had to trust to my own calculations. I turned off on to the A65 and got there with 20% in the tank.

Thanks, Gomev.

I was wondering. Sadly I forgot to make a note of the mileage (I usually do on all road trips), but looking at the route on GM, it was a total of 121 miles, M62/M1 there and M1/A628 home. We started on 100% and returned on 36%.

Due to the bad weather, Mrs didn't hoof it, so I'd have expected better "consumption".
