I thought the heat would bother me but I guess not. :laugh:
Rode for a little over 11 hours total.
The time I left the house.

I hardly ever sleep. They won't call me sleepless for nothing.:laugh:

I'm married with 2 kids but they are with their grandparents for a month and my wife works 12 hour shifts. When the kids come home July 12, I'll be back to my normal routine. That means I won't be riding that much especially on weekdays.

Take care and be safe out there, too. :beerchug:

So your goal is to have 100k by July 12, right?

Just curious, has your wife ever rode on your Busa?

Not exactly July 12. My goal is to have 100K miles before she turns 5 on September 27.

No, she hasn't. She's not into motorcycling.

You should just mount a camera to your tank and take pics as you go. When you atop for a break get some with your bike. It seems like I have seen a camera with a remote somewhere. That would be the way to go for sure. The sucker cup that comes with the GoPro would be ideal. The GoPro takes pretty good pics as well. Less then 600 and you will be there. You must clean that things every night to. It never seems to be dirty :laugh: Great job Man, I just wish I could ride that much. When you coming this way? Congrats :thumbsup:

Thanks. I'll look into it. I had one but when the kids took it to the pool, it got wet. It was a cheap one anyways.

I'll let you know when I can make it to your area.

only 5k to go in a month - you can do it!!!

I think you should do a BBG 1500 in 24 ride - that will make a huge dent right there, and you'll get a license plate backer upgrade :laugh:
