when i check mine, i usually ride the same 24 mile loop to and from work on it, and fill up at the same station.
also, we need to keep in mind different blends of fuels, summer/vs winter, pump accuracy as mentioned, etc. etc.
I agree that of course, measuring MPG should overall be done over multiple tanks and averaged to be a very useable data point, but this was just a snapshot.
On my rides, im rarely under 50 mph and my mileage for this reason, sucks. tiddling around i can get well over 85, but that's not how i typically, ride... , but i have. when in a slow group.
