Dont forget, even pushing through, if it says 12 hours it usually means more like 13-14 with stops for gas, rest and food. Dont forget to drink lotsa non alcoholic fluid on the way too!

For a long ride like this a 15-20 minute break is good, just to stop and go for a walk for a few smoke a cig or 2 and stretch again.
Haven't heard from sixxxer yet with his take on the plan.

When I rode home from the gap I did mostly 10 to 20 minute breaks. Stretched out, had a drink, took a leak and was right back at it, and took one longer break to sit and eat lunch. I will see about getting out early on wed so I can grab a power nap and be good to go. I figure I can leave here some time after 10pm just ot be sure traffic is not a factor and that will give a few hrs to get in some sleep. Tom |

You guys be safe! Don't push yourselves too hard!
 Don't make me worry. I'll expect texts for each of you periodically.
