[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 1122707, member: 20220"] I'm going to be Debbie Downer on this one. You are going to work that day and then rush off on an SS1K? An SS1K with a fairly structured schedule like this can lead to stress at each stop and when the unexpected comes along. Also, it's not just you on the SS1K here, it's her too. I'm not saying it's not possible, but with the work and then ride, you are going to be pushing both of you to do this and that can affect the safety of you both. Personally, I'd say have a relaxed and enjoyable ride to the event and have a good time and do the SS1K another time when you can have the cushion to absorb the unexpected. As said, only you guys know what you are capable of doing. I did mine with a decent night of sleep before and it still took it's toll. Not sure how well I'd do after working that day. [/QUOTE]
