Well, I saw this post, followed the link and it planted a seed.
Then last Monday I realized that I had no real plans for New Years....

Holy Sh*t, it was the toughest ride I have ever taken.
Bonus was staying near The Dragon and riding it for the first time.

I'm going to send in all my documentation for the certificate and the back plate.

Do it again? = Hell Yeah!
It has inspired me to go cross country.


Do it again in the winter.....?
... not sure. It was a really tough ride and at my midpoint things got really ugly and I was ready to bail out by crashing at a hotel in OH. It took way longer than I expected, the temps never rose above 30 and it was 14 when I got home. It was without a doubt a life altering experience.
