Why did you take Reliable +6? Do you want to have an effective skill of 16?

What your build means (Assuming IQ10):

Distance/Time required to retain an effective skill of 16
10 yards/2 minutes
20 yards/4 minutes
100 yards/8 minutes
500 yards/15 minutes
2 Miles/30 minutes
10 Miles/1 hour
100 Miles/2 hours
1,000 Miles/4 hours
10,000 Miles/8 hours

GURPS Powers: the Weird has some new modifiers, but doesn't define them clearly. They may be of interest to you:

Accessibility, Requires knowledge of destination, ‑10%; I assume "knowledge" means memory of a location you have actually been to.

Cosmic, Based on memory of destination rather than spatial coordinates, +50%; This seems to mean:
When teleporting to a known location you ignore Range penalties.
When teleporting to a known location you ignore Preparation bonuses/penalties.
When teleporting to a known location you, if you have Eidetic Memory you roll at +5 or +10 if you have Photographic Memory.


Also consider Cosmic: No Roll Required +100%.
