it was more trying to do too much with to tight a schedule... but yeah... I had several 600-800 mile days on that trip.... after not riding for a year it was too much... took it's toll.. but above that... I felt like I couldn't enjoy the area's I was riding!... so my trips now rarely have a 550 mile day... 7-9hrs of riding...

and yes... i have SEVERAL trips planned... to Newfoundland, to Vancouver Island, to San Diego are a couple...

Yeah, thats the problem with the super tours, you bust your ass to put in mega miles, but at the end of the road you realise how much you missed. Thats how I felt after the last day of one of our big trips last year, when we busted right aroun 550 home. I felt like the 250-400 mile days were so much more of an experience, just because you got to take it all in a lot better.

yeah I'm not so concerned about racking up miles on the trip as seeing different things via two wheels... stay off interstates as much as possible... and really see America. I'm hope'n I can get approved for 20 days off this comming year or next... to hit up Newfoundland... just take my time... meet a couple of you fuckers along the way

Yeah, thats the way to do it for sure.

I would love to just have a destination... no time restraints, no route planned, no anything. Just an end point.

spierce · 12-27-2008, 11:43 PM

I just want to go to a track day that is my Number one bike resolution.

pickle.of.doom · 12-27-2008, 11:45 PM

Ok, one more to my list. I would like to do my first day at the supermoto track this year...
