Thanks guys. Everything went so smooth it was almost rediculous. Temps ranged from 50 to 77 degrees. I started getting sick and thought I wasn't going to make it through Omaha. I think it was the lifesavers candy I was sucking on periodically got to me for some reason, but sickness only lasted a little while and I didn't have to stop. Only problem encountered other than that was my back started getting tired. Goldwing doesn't have a backrest or any other add ons, all stock. A couple aspirin helped that. The other thing that helped was new bicycle type shorts from LDcomfort, look goofy, but under a riding suit no-one sees. Didn't take any pictures, just rode.:) Goldwing ran like a clock as always. The last ride I did last Summer was the 1000 in 24 that took 18 hours but was a lot of slower roads. This one ended up 1576 miles in 21:46 all interstate according to Honda. IBA goes by GPS verified miles at 1515 so it looks successfull. I love these rides, family and friends don't understand.:)

321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.
