Nimble

So there we were - premier of Run Free - the moving and inspiring story of trail running legend Micah True - at the Dairy Center in Boulder where parking is limited... and people are choosing to park so lazily - leaving large spaces, but not large enough to fit another car.

Then there is Zippy - kapow!

Downpour

So it seems like the rain is never going to stop in Boulder... by the time I left the house today almost 1 inch had fallen since midnight. Zippy handled like a champ in the slippery mud, during the wet and windy decent of the mtn and through all of the standing water on the highway.
  • Distance: 18 miles
  • Duration: 32 minutes
  • Average Speed: 35.5 mph
  • Consumption (mi/kWh): 5.4
  • Temps: 35-42
Of note - had a new record for consumption while coming down the mtn last week - 33.7 mi/kWh!

Big, Big Day for Zippy

A fair bit of driving today - down the mtn, around town, back up the mtn:
  • Distance: 64 miles
  • Duration: 2 hrs 8 minutes
  • Average Speed: 28.6 mph
  • Consumption (mi/kWh): 4.4
When we got home though... our PV solar power system had been generating power for it's first day of sunlight! Free dinner for Zippy. 28.54 kWh by 6pm is well more than enough to charge the car and power the house for a full day. Awesome!
