Unlike the previous poster, I won't be waving pom-poms...but I will also be cheering you on. No doubt your past [extensive] riding experience will stand you in good stead.
As for pom poms, I mention them specifically because if you do get dozy at some point, and the various candies aren't provided the jolt needed, just picture Ray bopping up and down waving the pom poms while trying to sing something that rhymes...that's gotta be worth at least an hour of wide-awake riding

OMG!!! That is some funny stuff right there. I'm picturing Ray with a wig and pom poms standing on an I-80 overpass. If that's won't wake you up nothing will.

In defense of my buddy Ray ... I know that's not him.Dean, were you thinking of something like this......
He doesn't have that much hair

... never mind.

Nicely done with the photo! And to everyone chiming in, this has developed exactly as I had hoped! Now every overpass Ken rides under he will peek up, hoping not to see this...he'll keep awake for the entire time afraid of the dreams he'll otherwise have.

Are you guys going to break up into smaller groups or try to keep 20 riders together the whole way?
OP
OP
There maybe some guys that choose to ride together, but I would think most will be on their own. I expect we will be leap frogging each other as we'll be on different fueling schedules etc.

Good. I was thinking you guys would never make it if you tried to stay together. It's hard to find 2 or 3 guys with the same riding style, 20 would be impossible!

Totally agree. I know I'll be riding solo.
Ken, you're never really solo. You know about hour 20, the other voices in your head will keep you company. Heck around hour 32 I've had Chupacabras and giant chickens join me for a few miles. Could have just been "Ben Gay "fumes or "Tiger Balm Patch " induced hallucinations.
Ya gotta love a wife that says you should get a new bike! What a way to test your new bike and all its farkles out.
Maybe you should pack a Yuengling or two for San Francisco in case your brand is not available there? Be safe and enjoy(?) the ride. Thanks for posting this thread.

Thanks for the Spotwalla link. I will be following.
50CC? Here I thought you were going to ride 50CC bikes coast to coast. I did 9300 miles on my 50cc bike, but not all at once. It took 9 months.
Looks like Ken's doing pretty well... about 16 hours into it, almost half-way there.
I've been following along ... wondering if there's a site to see all the riders Spots? Went looking - but no joy.
Anyone?
Anyone?
