[QUOTE="TripperMike, post: 1155189, member: 27241"] One more piece of advice, it may seem common sense and should go without saying, but when you begin to feel exhausted to the point that you don't know if you'd be able to react properly if the need arises.......STOP and get rest. No cert is worth pushing it. I confess to doing it early on, pushing it until I saw purple dinosaurs or 6' tall padlocks in the middle of the road. At that point I knew I rode longer than I should have and pulled over soon after. What a lot of LD folks will tell you, as many had advised me, when you notice that you find it difficult to maintain a steady speed....it's time. An hour or two of shut eye will do wonders and you'll still have plenty of time to finish a SS1K. Live to ride another day. [/QUOTE]
