[QUOTE="CAJW, post: 956223, member: 1055"] Good for you and Congrats! Regarding seeing things in the dark, fatigue will make any of us do silly things. Riding solo for the last part of my SS1000 at about hour 16 after fighting wind, rain, fog, dust, smoke and football size rocks in mountain passes all day, my processor went into sleep mode. Fighting a headwind (mainly had a cross or tail wind most of the day) that increased to around 30-40 kts. I didn't take into account that fuel mileage would drop dramatically. Reserve fuel trip meter activated, dark and no gas in sight, not a good feeling, but all turned out ok. Adelanto Constables can be tricky, they used to keep a dummy in a patrol car on the south end of town on 395 to slow down the tourists. Your story would be interesting, no doubt. [/QUOTE]
