What Is Your LD Plans for the Year?

[101stpathfinder]

Looks like we will now be doing a fly and ride from Phoenix to Indy, 1700 miles, the weekend of April 5-6th. Found a 2009 with 70k miles and some farkles for a great price! Gonna de-farkle, reinstall oem parts then sell it for a little profit.

Allen - Only a greedy rider would own 2 FJRs because you know 1 is almost impossible to wear out.

Tell us more! States? Base of operations?

Jealous that you have nine days avail for something like this. What a challenge.

Me-lighter year due to work commitments:

Poison

BL7

Partial Denver

Tour of Honor SS or whatever I can squeeze

Thanks RiderX. It's just nine identical 1,518 mile loops, all inside Wyoming. Base of ops will be in NE WY.

And I'm jealous you're doing Poison this year. It'll be a hell of a lot more fun than my ride.

I'm guessing you'll have a support team to handle maintenance while you rest between loops?

 

[dcarver]

OK, I'm going to up the ante.

I'm gonna ride 57.5 miles to work!

I know, it will be tough, but I'll give it the Candy Butt Association best effort!

Absolutely - yes.

I'm interested in how you plan your rest stops (time allowed and actual rest time).

I'd at least like to hear about your planning if you choose not to share the actual ride itself.

I've just added Chicago to my spring travel itinerary.

Anyone up for an ATL to CHI run in early may? (other way-points needed for mileage)

I hear the food is awesome

 

[101stpathfinder]

Chuck, late April run from WPB To Des Moines.

BBG up and a BBG back. Same roads until the I57/I64 split...

Well, the bike, a waterproof chest of tools & parts, oil, drain pan, bucket, tires and a hitch-mounted tire changer I'll haul in my pickup from here (PA) to the starting & ending point of each BBG in northeast WY. Oil changes every 2nd day, tire changes as needed. We'll basically just use the hotel parking lot & my truck as the pit area.

The intent is to do each loop in 19-20 hours - sleep and shower with the remaining time.

I might just see ya in Chi-town Chuck. Just need to wait a few days to find out if another event with one of my sons is scheduled for that same weekend. I won't be doing the ATL - CHI route, but I'll certainly be seeing some IA countryside on my way there.

NOPE I'm out, as it turns out the thing with the son is that same weekend.

 

[101stpathfinder]

Well Dan, you have got me entranced with this ride. WYOMING ? I like the selected area! Time of year seems best... I hope you will let me observe this ride (?). I have been considering a hellweek, so I would love to watch someone who is much more planned out than myself do this ride.

If you don't go public with your tracking info, please consider letting me follow along. :.)

If I make the Ia stop, direct route is 1400 miles...

Now you're starting to sound like that 'pathfinder dude.

This isn't a competition again anyone other than just myself. This is just something I need to try and do personally.

If I make SPOT tracking public, it will be at "wyomingtt.com" by mid June.
