[QUOTE="extrememarine, post: 1170764, member: 3568"] One year, Lee put together a route that was 500 miles of the twistiest roads he could find. It was meant to be a joke, he never thought anyone would attempt it. I did, ran it hard start to finish, and had one hell of day. BUT, and there is always a but - to run like that, a person has to have the willingness to be brutally honest with themselves regarding their current state and abilities. You have to know as a rider when enough is enough, when it's time to pack it in and bail before you end up a skid mark off the side of a mountain. It sounds cool on the neenernet, but to actually do it takes, imho, a level of focus not many can sustain over that many techical, unforgiving miles. [/QUOTE]
