They all seem to be at or just below 100 MPGe (equivalent Miles Per Gallon). Then, by chance, I down loaded a tracking program for the bike. It also gives the amount of\u00a0calories\u00a0expended. So I decided to do a quick calculation for the MPGe of the trike. Looking around the internet it seems that the general consensus is that the amount of calories in a liter of petrol is about 8,000 to 9,000. Form here it was just a scaling\u00a0exercise. I also did a return trip so that the altitude gain and loss was nulled out.<\/p>\n<pre style=\"text-align: justify;padding-left: 30px\">Calories Expended            - 392.<\/pre>\n<pre style=\"text-align: justify;padding-left: 30px\">Distance                     - 17.27 km<\/pre>\n<pre style=\"text-align: justify;padding-left: 30px\">Equivalent volume of petrol  - 0.044 liters<\/pre>\n<pre style=\"text-align: justify;padding-left: 30px\">Kilometres Per Liter (Equiv) - 396<\/pre>\n<pre style=\"text-align: justify;padding-left: 30px\">MPGe                         - 932<\/pre>\n<p align=\"center\"><a title=\"CQ09 Day1 Toowoomba by yewenyi, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/yewenyi\/3922128542\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2537\/3922128542_00aefa28a2.jpg\" alt=\"CQ09 Day1 Toowoomba\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day I saw a debate about the MPGe calculations for\u00a0Electric\u00a0only cars.
