Sport Touring?

400 mile day is a serious day, no matter what you are riding.

ferret old buddy, 400 miles on some of my long rides will only get me to about noon. I have done so many 1000 mile days, I quit counting them

Ole, how long does it take you to do 1000 miles?

I'm with the Ferret: 400 miles is a serious day.
By the way Ferret, thanks for the links to the earlier ride reports. I enjoyed them. Good work and good fun by the sound of them.

I will have to give you some background. I live in the flatlands of Wisconsin. I am addicted to mountains. Do you see a problem here? My Denver Colorado cousin lives exactly 927 miles from my home. My St. Mary Montana cousin lives exactly 1406 miles from my home. I have made dozens of trips to each one.
With the proper mental preparation, I can do 1000 miles in 18 hours easy.
And with the same preparation, I can make my Montana cousin in 24 hours but that means dodging deer in The Dakota's at night something I don't enjoy. This is high speed interstate most of the way, I do get pinched once in awhile for speeding but that is the price we pay.
