What’s the speed limit between Vale, OR and Burns, OR?

I’ll give you a hint - it’s not 40 mph. Just got back to Ontario to charge - adding 1.5 hrs to the trip

    Hi @K Dubs,

    If the current information is wrong you can change it by yourself on openstreetmap.org. Notice that it can take some time until we get the updates to our app.

    This needs to be fixed, massive calculation errors if not. Not like there is much options around to charge. Thanks for posting.

    Hi @Ella ABRP-

    thanks for the response. For additional context, this was my first time using ABRP precisely because i was traveling through an area with limited charging options. I was actually more worried about the segment from Burns, OR to Alturas, CA, but that turned out fine - definitely increased my confidence in the app.

    Specific to my question/complaint - is there a way to see what assumptions ABRP is using for the plan? I didn’t see that summarized anywhere. If i knew in advance the calculation was based on 40 mph (it’s actually 65 mph) I would have seen the problem right away and known i needed to recharge in Ontario, OR.

    In my case it wasn’t until i left Vale and realized the app thought the limit was 40 mph (for ~100 miles plus elevation gain) that I understood the energy estimate was wrong, and i had to turn around or get stuck in the middle of Oregon.

    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
