Congratulations on your ride Paul. Glad you made it safe and sound and without incident.

Well, I'm back home after a whirlwind trip to see the IBR finish. Didn't do another SS1k on the way back but got home in one day, a little over 900 miles. That's a big mileage day for me.
Great ride Paul!!

Thanks Ken. Good to see you at the IBR finish... congrats on 8th place!
Looks like you'll need to fill in those last few remaining states in your signature map! Don't forget your treks into Canada!

Looks like a great trip Paul. I broke in the Versys this past week. 2000 miles to Colorado and back but no SS1K for me :-(
97º?? Are you sure you went to Minnesota?

Well it was 97° in Iowa on the highway in bright sun!
You may want to check your maps again. I think you went to Arizona.

I got an email tonight from the IBA saying my SS1k was approved! I'm now IBA #68258. Now to plan for the next one.

Well done on your ride! I am waiting for my paperwork to be processed for my ride from Charlottetown, PEI to Toronto, Ontario in July. Glad you had a good ride.
Welcome to the club. Congrats on a job well done.
