[QUOTE="user 213, post: 1449715, member: 213"] The re-occurring misconception is that you can't do a 1000 mile day comfortably. That's just not true. It's not punishing, sleep depriving or fatiguing if you prepare the motorcycle and know what you're doing. Cert rides really just came about for me to see new areas in the limited time I had on weekends and days off. Stop when you want to, take pictures, enjoy the ride. It's a relaxed 18 hour ride with an hour break for lunch, etc. It's not for everyone and that too is the point. But in the confines of this thread, understand that there is no reason for it to be 'punishing'. Many people riding endurance rallies do it for the challenge, but also the focus that comes with having a plan and riding the plan. Everything else is secondary when you're doing that ride. That focus is what appealed to me for rallies. [/QUOTE]
