You know, I've never calculated the fuel efficiency on my bike. I had to hit reserve at 38 miles on a trail ride a while back, but not a good comparison to race pace.

I actually don't know what the capacity is before it goes to reserve - anyone know?

Anyway, I'd be completely whipped if I did that many miles while trying to keep a race pace. It's bad enough trying to keep a trail pace for 45 miles...lol.
