I find myself at the gas station on every long ride but the trade off is how fun this bike is. It’s super easy to ride, would make a great beginner bike or even a good bike for a rusty ole nail like myself

You could bungee a small gas can to the rear of the seat, so you are not dependent on being near a gas station. Add any amount you want (i.e. add less to save weight). Even just an extra half gallon is probably good for about 50 miles. Refill the bike's tank after the first long ride to get rid of the weight back there.

If you already have a can you like but hate the modern caps on most newer cans, there are conversion kits:
