That's like 100 miles! I respect you!

No scuffing to your tank etc? Police wouldn't have stopped you if they had seen you?
Several police saw me, none cared to follow... not even to gawk or get dash-cam footage for YouTube. I used my phone to cast light on the tank when I got home and it didn't look any worse than it always has (lots of tank bag usage wearing on the clear-coat). I think it contacted the tank bag mostly. I had the option to ride up on the passenger seat with 0% contact but I didn't feel like doing that the whole way.

As for the miles... I needed to run through a tank treated with Seafoam before taking it in for dealer service, in case that solved any of my issues. It was the perfect opportunity to do so. It didn't take me more than an hour to get there anyway (Mira Mesa SD is a little bit closer than down-town SD and there was no traffic).
