the lowest I've gotten was 26-27 and that was when I was always rushing to work with fast accelerations(stepping it all the way ALWAYS) and very hard stops w/ the recommended tire psi. And I try not to carry any additional weight except for myself and I weigh about 165lbs at that time.

Now that I lost weight and increased tire pressure by 4psi, started putting on neutral gear whenever I see a red light and started to accelerate slowly when on a dead stop(w/c is damn hard coz I really like the VROOOM sound) I am averaging 33-34 with combined city and highway driving. I really like to fast and its verry verry tempting to do so. I can't really keep my speed on the highway speed limit of 55mph unless I'm texting while driving.
