Default Average stop????
On your average stop....let's say a round trip ride of 300 miles. What is your average mileage... to stop, rest, stretch, bathroom etc?

My azz kills around 100 miles.....[:@]

If I'm not in a hurry I usually like to stop for a quick stretch at least every 50 to 75 miles whether I need gas or not. My wife usually rides with me and she appreciates it. If I am with a group I usually go with the group.

Lots of variable, sometimes I stop every 50 miles, sometimes I go until the gas light kicks on. Just depends.
