    Ibr 5000

    Not sure if anyone else has posted this but there is a Iron Butt Rally running as I post this

    http://www.ironbutt.com

    Right hand side of the first page under "Latest Iron Butt News"

    There is a guy by the name of Scott Thornton riding a XS11

    First Day he is 7th! I hope he can keep that up!

      You beat me to it. I've been following the iron butt for a few years. These guys are amazing. I sure hope Scott finishes.

          That's cool! He's now in 7th with 2k miles. I'd be interested to hear what he uses for seat comfort.

                      Looks like he didn't finish... I wonder what ended it for him?

                          He had a great first day and then nothing. I'd sure like to see some details.
