Buzz,

Thanks for the link. I had kind of understood how the regenerative charging worked but that made it much easier. Unfortunately we have a few mountains here such as the ones between me and the coast where you have to follow the old stage coach trail and in some places it just winds around and around in the canyons and is a steady uphill climb for miles before you get to a downhill area. And East of me is a very steep and several miles long grade up to Lassen Park which would really be a drag on the battery.
