You guys are nuts. I even have a Corbin seat and I would not try to go over
400-500 miles in one day. I'd be too beat up at the end of the day. Not to
mention I wouldn't know where my butt begins and my legs end. If you can do
it, my hat is off to you. The only way I am going over 500 miles in a day is
if I am sitting in a Luxo Goldwing, Motorhome, or other four wheeled
conveyance. Heck, when my wife and I rode to Vegas from Lompoc (just north of
Santa Barbara, California) that was a 400 mile day and I was beat, and that
was on a ST1100. You guys have one tough backside. Plus, you can't see much
hauling butt like that all day. I like to stop and look around, take
pictures, smell the flowers, kiss the wife, ya know, that sappy family crap.
Well, my hats off to you guys. I'll stick with my leisurely way of travel.
