Actually, for Canadians, you'll find we'd like that price a whole lot as it's only $0.948/litre as opposed to my current $1.349/litre

I keep thinking about going there back in 95 when gas in Calgary was 38 cents/litre but 52 in Canmore (back then Calgary worked out to be about 10 cents cheaper than Montana)
Saw the other day where prices in Norway are equal to over $7 USD a gallon (world's highest) and $0.12 in Argentina or Chile (world's cheapest)
What I hate are packaged products that price stays the same, BUT look close and quantity is now smaller (EX ice cream was in 1/2 gallon now in 1.75 Qts: coffee now in 2 lb 7 oz instead of 3 lb)

ok SlimColo, Putted around Montrose, Durango, Ouray, etc. this Memorial weekend and gas was running on avg. about $4.15/gal. I knew this would be coming soon and I would have to cut back somewhere, so I guess I start dieting, Cuz it ain't gonna be riding.

Drove past a gas station in Chicago today and regular unleaded was $4.49. Luckily I take the train most days.

ok, JMack that was reg. unleaded what about premium...bike takes premium. I have lots of trips planned this summer. Kansas next weekend, Utah and Albuqurque in June, then Minnisota in July, then all over in August, still debating on a CC. but with the gas prices like that it just might have to wait.

Premium was $4.79, but that was actually in the city. Go about 7 miles west to one of the close suburbs and it is $4.35. Unfortunately it stays that price for 60 miles around.
