One of my problems is that although I have estimated times for several different routes, I don&#8217;t have a very good way of determining if my estimates are accurate (other than driving and timing them). The way I do my estimates is that I classify each road I drive on as one of several different &#8220;types&#8221;, and then give each type an approximate average speed. For example, Interstates &#8211; 60 mph, Divided Hwys 50, State and US routes 40, etc. Then I multiply the distance * this average speed and add them all up and get my total estimate.<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, I did some testing of a local portion of my route this afternoon. I am posting it here not only for your fun and amusement, but also to save it for posterity:<\/p>\n<p>Got off 71 South at 11:12, with odometer ending in 7.5<br \/>Went straight at the offramp, curled around past Home Depot and turned right onto Fields Ertel Road.  Drove on there for awhile, and passed Butler-Warren road (and thus into Butler county) at 11:17 (odometer 0.0).  There was a business right there for my turning around convenience, and I was back on 71 south at 11:20 (1.9).<\/p>\n<p>So total for the detour was 8 minutes and 4.4 miles, or approximately 33 mph.  I had estimated 12 minutes for this (4 miles at 20 mph), so that&#8217;s good.  I will point out that if I were to come the other way (from 71 northbound instead of southbound), I think it will take longer, as I&#8217;ll have to turn left off the off-ramp and then left onto Mason-Montgomery, and to get back on 71 north I&#8217;ll have to go past the 71S onramp, through the M-M intersection and then left across F-E.  That might be a problem, especially at a high-traffic time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay so I did some testing of my EFC route.
