Hah! I was actually wondering about that, hoping that posting here would get a response ;) I was there for RubyConf too! Small world.

You were? I hope you enjoyed it :)


Have we met?
 
Beautiful car. Beautiful spot. How far is that from where you live?

Live near the CBD, was just under a 200km round trip at 197Wh/km with TACC in use for the vast majority of the trip.

What was the drive up there like Matt?

Easy. Lots of freeway with 110 zones, which is unusual here in Victoria as far as I can tell.

600m of elevation gain on the way up and 600m drop on the way back. Trip energy predictions in the car were almost spot on, except where I did a little bit of spirited acceleration.

Great-Grandfather, Christopher, buried here in 1909, would, undoubtedly, have said the same thing ! One horse in front of his buggy was enough then.
However, I think he would also be delighted to see the Future of Motoring today,
