Here's a couple of pics from my solo trip (it was incredibly fun and liberating to do the trip solo.... so much wonderful freedom!)

Damn, take a paperback next time! :dthumb:

I can't do it if it's that early next year... I won't get to Mississippi till March... and have training and shit to go through. what if we did it before Indy and just stopped in Indy the wed before the race and left the day after the race. :idk: I think I could swing that.

:lol: I can deal with emotional... but if you fuckers start muttering about my purdy mouth I'm bailing.

Longest trip to day for me so far would be 8800 miles in 9 days, in 2006. Road out to California for work, after work was over I met up with a friend down in San Diego ... then we proceeded to ride from San Diego out to Jacksonville and back in 4 days, completed a loop around SoCal to wrap up 5K in 5 days, saw him off on a border-to-border insanity (I was his Mexico witness), and I road back to Texas.

Longest single day has been 1,515 miles in 23.5 hours, although last weekend I came close to beating that with 1458 miles in 22 hours.

Next year, motorcycle gremlins willing, I'll likely reset both my single day high mileage and longest trip mileage. I have an addiction that only Michelin can slow down. :D

I was left off the kool kids invite list, so had to find my way over here on my own. :)

:lol: I'm just a hardcore minimalist when it comes to bike trips.

Here is the bike fully loaded. I am SO NOT minimalist. If I coulda strapped on my living room sofa... I would have done so. :lol:

BTW - I took so much crap for loading my bike up like this. But it worked for me. :D

my only problem with packing like this was I was always worried about things coming loose... if they're in my bag I don't worry about them... but when they're strapped to the top and bungee'd i'm constantly worry'n about them :idk: to be honest though... never once had a strap loose or lost anything on the road
