I'm impressed that you rode all that Teri. I don't think I could click off 1500 miles in a day very easily.

I could totally make a road rally that followed the same rules as the dirt stuff but you'd better ready when I create a road version of the trial section because epic clutch control is only going to get you so far
The same weekend I did this, the local sport riders from Sierra Sportbike Assoc decided to link all the seasons runs together for a 600+ mile twisty day. The SSA Fecta. If you could close the roads down and treat them like a track for the event, that would be epic. But trying to race the clock with oncoming traffic... Err, pass! LOL I do need to find some twisties and run laps on them, my poor Rosso II's are rather square!

But if there was no time limit and one heck of a twisty road, or linked roads, across country, I'd be right there with ya (well, maybe many many miles behind you) cruising that road every single chance I had! That would simply be sick!

@CycleCam303 Thanks. It turned it to be less difficult than I thought it would, though still a mental workout to maintain focus and not let my average suffer. 1000 in 24 hours proved to be doable. But if I were to try the BunBurner Gold (1500/24 hours) I think I'd get off the bike a complete basket case.

Hold yourself to the same rules you expect others to follow.
