I'm ready to do the saddle sore sometime this year.  I've done 2 iron butt's with one being official so I'm ready for the 1500 mile.   :D

Sometime I'll do the CCC.  The coast to coast to coast.

In 1999 a group of us went to Sturgis and stayed an extra day so we had to ride straight back.  That was fun... :D :D ;)  After about 500 miles you don't feel your butt anyway. O0  But around the 15th hour you are so tired if ride at night you freeze your Cranberries off. :o  The coldest part of our whole trip was from Dallas to here.  I pulled into Conroe at 2:30am.  The bad thing was we got sun burnt coming down the Kanas City turnpike is 105 degree heat. That could be why we froze between here and Dallas. :o

I would be up for a long ride if I can get away. O0
