Hey Eric... how ya doin'? Loooooong time since we gave free rein to our '03s!!!
(still got that yellow jkt?)
Found the post below on S.T.N., Warchild's own acknowledgement so figures now make sense.
again, a "cranium crunching" endeavor!
also... this is an interesting chart. Only place 75 mph is legit is on rural Interstate

Spectacular job. I am impressed, humbled, and strangely intreagued at the same time.
Question: Do you think a similar feet would be possible on the eastern 1/2 of the country where WFO across the high desert is not a realistic option?
Well now, one should note I only had to maintain a 63.4 mph average for the week....
But realistically, I think such an undertaking would not be successful without the proper riding environment. The reason I was successful - the only reason - is that I was able to get a solid 4 to 4.5 hours of sleep every night. Which means you need to finish these runs in 19-ish hours. Now, that's about a 78-79mph average, which is readily do-able with the 75-mph posted speed limits in Nevada.
But that's a lot more problematic on typical eastern roadways. I know, as I grew up in the East and the South, spent many years there.
Which is why I live out West nowadays....

I assume you never exceeded the posted speed limit?
