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 Sad

...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.

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.

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

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.

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.
