Got back from our run to Chester & back a total journey of 143 miles. Did a steady 70 mph on the A 50 to Stoke on Trent then stuck with the 60,50,40 & 30 mph seed limits on the journey to Chester.

Same on the return except kept the speed down to 65 mph on the last stretch of the A50 from Stoke -on-Trent to Derby.

Result was 36.7 mpg on the whole trip !
