[QUOTE="Patriot, post: 745591, member: 17187"] wow, almost a year later: planning to try [S]next Sunday June 28, 2009[/S] Thur, June 3, 2010 OK, if weather is favorable, this is gonna happen this THURSDAY (June 3rd) I might have done it on DDay June 6th to always remember Jeff Q and I are heading up I-55 to close to St Louis I leave New Orleans, he leaves Biloxi, MS Specifically, I leave my home in Metairie, LA and ride to Matthews, MO for end stop at the Flying J. Then we ride back. The google maps or mapquest miles is 519. Jeff's is 100+ more. We leave in the wee hours of the morning and try to time our passage twice through Memphis at a low traffic time. Jackson, MS we aren't particularly worried about traffic. The rest of the run is minimal population. Any advice, problem solving, comment, suggestions are welcome. My butt is as tough as it's going to get with sfo, and PGR rides in a day of 350, 420, and Saturday's 750 miles with no real issues. I'm in my best riding shape physically and mentally since the engine swap on Dec 6th. All sytems on the bike working properly. Changed the oil today, tested out AVCC, adjusted and cleaned throttlemeister, and tires have a good 2/3 of tread worth. Flight Plan filed and we're looking to taxi out to the runway... [/QUOTE]
