Im curious to why you're planning on traveling ~200 miles on a scooter with out needing to take a bathroom break :) Cos you might as well just take the 30 extra seconds to re-fuel when you do :P

i know there is one day on the cannonball where we have at least 170 miles without a gas station, and that is if you time everything just right.

There's no shortage of places to piddle in the high desert of Nevada where the Cannonball is going. It's just that there's not a gas station for 170 miles. Kinda tough on scooters that have a 140 mile absolute maximum range... :wink:

did you have this kind of situation on the last cannonball, where you went a long distance without a gas stop?

What happened to me in the desert last time is still a closely guarded secret... :roll: Does that pretty much answer your question though?
