cycle world article - 70mpg?

Since Tom Grenon is Canadian I sorta assumed the editors converted his 70
kilometers per gallon to 70 miles per gallon inadvertantly. Or does he
really get 70mpg?
Lou, 97 KLR650 that get 50 to 55mpg all the time.

That's the simplest and therefore probably correct answer. The
editors must have changed his kmpg and range in kms to mpg and miles.
70 km/g = 43 m/g
400km range = 248 miles
I don't feel industrious enough to adjust for Imperial gallons.

Buy the new tube. In the long run you are going to spend more time
screwing around than it costs. Mis dos centavos, Senor.
