My longest time in the seat, though, has been about a 9-10 hour trek, covering a little over 200 miles. It took that long because I refused to take the highway, opting instead to ride US1 the entire way home from my sister's place in Cocoa. I have to give props to the BF for that ride.....we were split up at that time and weren't really speaking. I'd ridden up to Cocoa alone the day before and had had some problems. He knew I was there and called to ask how it went. I broke down and told him the troubles I'd had. He happened to be headed south from Daytona the next day, and didn't want me riding alone, so he patiently rode through 200 miles of surface streets, traffic and red lights to see me safely home.
