I drove my restored Herald 1200 up to Andy Mace's place in NY a few months
back. Most of the way around 70, doing well all the way. 5 hours each
direction, and I did the round trip in one day. Only real problem was after
so many fill ups(my little 8 gallon tank, combined with my not knowing where
I'd find the next gas stop meant I kept topping up) my gas card was
suspended for too many uses in a day! I made my last gas stop about 20 miles
from home, on fumes, and I gave them my last $3.00, as they wouldn't take my
card!
