RE: [emrat:11347] Saddlesore 1000 Riders?

And don't forget to line up a really good friend who will stay up until midnight to sign your paperwork to attest that you have made it home.  A really good friend who, when you look into his garage and ask why he has so many motorcycles, will still sign the paperwork.  Such friends are pretty rare . . . .

When Martin and I did it we went on the first Sat if March and left Denver at 4:30 am going West in I70 to Green Ever then North to Provo and back on I80. Much of those roads are 80mph and not too much traffic plus the sun was never in our eyes. We did no real prep except Google Maps to make sure we'd have enough miles.

I am interested. Factors of when, going to where and prep are the questions that are in my mind.

Not that I'm able to join you for that, but might I suggest that you don't go in July or August unless you like the heat. It's tiring enough without that added complication. 

 

When I did mine back in the previous decade, I went on the summer solstice because it gave me maximum daylight. June can be warm but not like July. Although you may have more interesting weather in June...

 

Enough of my unsolicited opinions, have fun and ride safe!

Is anyone interested in doing a Saddlesore 1000 ride this Summer to earn your "Iron Butt" certification?  I'm thinking of doing one, probably in late June or possibly mid July or August.  For purposes of planning and logistics, probably no more than 4 bikes total.  If anyone's interested let me know and I'll start working on it.
