WoW ! You two must be made of something stronger than titanium . I was going to brag about my first ST 500 km one day ride - home to home. Think I'll save it for later. Well Done !
Quite a remark from a local, who knows the road conditions and all...
(and BTW: when I started to ride back in '92 a simple 150km run would wear me down completely, despite being a HVAC service driver running calls all day... but car and bike are really different)
Also I questioned the draft my GF presented me, showing daily stages of way over 500km/300miles...
But she was fully confident and responded that we
have to get up there after all (like the 3 days through Sweden, crossing the Arctic Circle and swerving to the Lofoten)
And she held up well, longest run were 740km/460miles... Dorotea to Kiruna...
Not by choice though, the Swedes have their "rep-stop"... mines are shut down for the annual refurb and renewing of equipment, hence
every imaginable accommodation in those areas was fully booked out due to techs and engineers from all over the country and beyond swarming in (talked to a fella from Swiss there...)
So we kept heading north, arrived in Kiruna after dawn, refueled and finally located a "youth hostel"...
At the end her NT700VA odo showed 7562km/4726miles, my '00 ST's odo 7630km/4768miles covered on wheels... (GPS tracks are unreliable as they are including some boat rides as well)
