Hello -
A new personal best with a comparison of the weather :
Route : 105 East -> 710 North -> 10 East -> exit freeway -> North on Rosemead
Net Elevation change : ~788 feet up (+210 on freeway, +578 on streets)
I did my usual Pulse and Glide (the mild kind with engine idling). Traffic tonight was a little too fast for my taste, but obviously it didn't hurt me. Here is what I think were the contributing factors :
- Similar weather conditions to the previous runs (it's been hot in LA the last few days).
- The Warm(er) Air intake is running a little hotter, maybe 125 deg F on the freeway.
- When I got off the freeway I was at exactly 50 MPG. My previous best off the freeway
was less than 47 MPG, so I was able to nurse it home to hit the mark.
- Slightly lower MPH Max and Avg.
