You're good at math, but you have no concept of my budget!
I do realize I have a little part to play in the gas mileage, but when I ride all day with a few others, or a larger group, I have consistently had to take on more gas than others at gas stops. It ain't just me -- it's partly me -- but, it ain't just me.
