    2017 Iron Butt Rally

    Dave, I wish you a fast and speedy recovery. 20 years ago I was diagnosed with Lymphoma and had a major surgery to remove a tumor around my kidney and spine and I completely recovered so I know you can also.

    Pre rally sleep...or lack thereof

    I am not losing sleep yet but I will at some point. I have a hard time sleeping even for a BBG ride even though I have done 40 of them. Right now life and work have me very busy but I do spend some time everyday thinking, planning or organizing for the IBR. When I can't sleep before a ride I...

    Toll Transponders

    I just mount the toll transponders I have and don't switch. I don't have two transponders that are for the same toll system. For the IBR I will have two mounted, NC Quick Pass ( NC, GA, FL, and North East EZ-Pass ) and the TX Toll Tag. Any other toll system will just have to bill me.

    Looking For Best Route Connecting I-10 and I-15

    Tony, What ever route you take I am sure you will have fun. Why not run out the Phoenix on I-10 and then I-17 north to I-40 and then west to somewhere like Daggett to cut up to I-15. Just remember that taking either I-10 or I-40 into CA will take you into the desert, hot during the day and...

    Annual IBA Daytona Party

    I will see you there Tony. I am not doing the BBG or SS1000 but I may be doing my own ride depending on if I can get my 40th BBG done before that week.

    2017 Iron Butt Rally

    I am $2075 poorer today which means I was lucky to be selected to ride in my 4th IBR. It would have been my 5th but I had to drop out in 2011. I will be riding my new RT so the gold wing will be sitting this one out. I have been testing a car tire on the RT and so far with 2000+ miles it has...
