[QUOTE="turbodave_98, post: 183840, member: 155"] I am a 'VINTAGE" LDR and love the thrill of doing the Insanity type IBA rides. Planning to do the Border to Border Insanity spring of 2007. I get my second wind for continuing to ride after I have been in the saddle for 12 or so hours which nets about 750 miles. Then I will usually easily net 250 more miles fairly comfortably. Then I just look for the next available reasonably priced motel to crash in. I usually will sleep for 6-7 hours and then start over. I am not much of an eater on the rides and coffee at every gas stop is a big boost for me(some will disagree but...it works for me). The longest run I have made is from Jacksonville Beach FL to San Diego CA with only one sleep stop, that for 1.5 hours on a rest stop picnic bench in Junction TX. I was riding with a buddy which helped but I do not recommend that INSANITY form of riding for anyone and I shall never do it AGAIN!! [/QUOTE]
