I don't know howie. . .

650 is a big number, but not the biggest in this thread. . .

actually it's probably in 4th or 5th place.

I guess I got no game :(

;D
...but you've done it how many times now?

and how many more to come?

I'm a wuss...

I do 350mi days on back roads.

I hate the slab.

3.  Twice this year alone :D

I think my days of riding to DIMBY may be drawing to a close.  I think Mrs ML is coming to the next one which means the bike goes in the back of the truck.

That I don't own yet.

;D

Keep in mind, what Monsterlover and Knight did was well in excess of what the average Iron Butt Guy does in terms of endurance and Knight did it with a broken ass [bow_down] [bacon]

let's not forget that lethe did the ride too, only he got to stop 150mi before we did.
when i start hitting 600-700 miles a day on normal rides then i'll start comparing myself to the IBA guys.
for right now, they are still whacky. i just like to ride where i'm going.

Seriously, when i am 800years old i want to rock like Lemmy! it is a religion that requires lots of determination, drugs, and Marshall stacks.

Longest day in the saddle as 1023 miles in 17:55 during my IBA ride.  Got about 8 hours of sleep and wrapped up 1570 miles in 33:20.  My bike doesn't have cup holders, but the Camelback and iPod were essential.
