Left Westerville Ohio at 5:30 am Thursday June 12th, returned at 3:30am on Friday June 13th. 1142 miles total. I just need to send in paperwork to get certified. I will post a complete ride report on the Ride Ohio site and place a link here. Pretty cool that it was done on my 30year old XS11

Too old?

Not knowing you, or your physical limitations, I have to agree that can be a factor.Fastmover

I learned along time ago that some Advil or whatever taken before you start to ache usually keeps you from aching. The only non freeway miles were the little bit of US35 in W VA.Originally posted by RUSH

Certified?
Maybe I'm just being slow today, but what certification are you talking about? Because if riding over 1000 miles straight is something to get recognized for, I'm all set as well.

Try your hardest to be the kind of person your dog thinks you are.
You can live to be 100, as long as you give up everything that would make you want to live to be 100!

Stock but with a new cover. I had ordered a gel pad but it did not get here in time so used an old bath towell to help. The only real problem I had was with an old neck issue. I though it might act up so I brought along a 3/4 coverage helmet that was a lot lighter. I switched to it about 600 or 700 miles into the ride.Originally posted by DenyP
