Long distance ride... In winter

[Dougyeager]

Yesterday I successfully made it 780 miles from Florida to north carolina. Was one of the coldest experiences of my life. By the time I got here, I couldn't feel any of my extremities. The worst part was the rain I hit in South Carolina. Not a trip that I would want to do again. It did give a nice sense of accomplishment though. I was also impressed by how my 85 vt1100c shadow held up. She might be old but she's bulletproof.

Now this is a miles ride that wasn't meaningless. You got a nice dose of experience!

experience is a great teacher...

when's the return trip?

I'm working here for at least the next year. I'm looking at a small trailer so i can get my car and bike in the same swoop.

You're going to pull a trailer with a car in it with a bike? LOL

I'd love a ride that length, but it would have to be the other direction.

wow what happened to warm weather in the southern states during winter?

This is what I was thinking. http://www.abiketow.com/

It was spitting snow last night when I rolled into Durham, nc. Just a little colder than I would have liked.

Good on ya. Cold weather is bad enough, but prolonged cold takes it to another level. Hope it was at least a little bit fun.

It was for awhile
