Good one, Ferret! Lol.
If you've never done really long days, its the last 100 or so that gets you, and there is a big dif between 600 vs 1000...I've never officially done the SS..However, I've done several 800-900 mile days.. There was one ride that if I took a detour for an extra 85 miles I could have gotten it (folks watched us leave and we recorded our start and kept gas receipts for start time just in case). We were riding cross Ohio and 33 in Wva. I swear to god that my a** vetoed the extra leg..
I have a bud who did the 50cc.. That's coast to coast in 50 hours.. same thing it's the last 100 miles that gets you... There were some riders who were waiting for her so she followed em in for the last hour into ca....
It's a great cause, and good luck..
