100 mpg US attempt tomorrow
It’s Monday evening, and I am at a Bed & Breakfast in Prince Albert. The internet connection is sketchy – so I can’t upload all my pictures, or report on everything I would like.
I am going to make my first attempt at 100 mpg US in the morning – driving approx 250 miles to Yorkton. I should arrive there by 3 pm, so that’s the soonest I’ll be able to post any results…
The morning was spent at Fort Battleford, taking in a guided tour. Afterwards I made my way through small town Saskatchewan, trying to avoid getting swallowed up by potholes on Hwy 12 and elsewhere. Seriously - there were sections that would have taken the front end of the car apart.
Driving slower today yielded close to a 3.6 L/100km tank - after bombing miserably on the Calgary to Kindersley run - which was 4.9 - though I was going 110+ whenever possible. The Revelstoke to Calgary tank turned out to be 4.2 - including local driving and the short trip to Cochrane.
