It's time for us to take about 10 days to visit family back in Ohio, we'll be in our car and it's about 1100 miles to our original home. We're leaving Saturday EARLY morning, I hate getting up at 4 AM but our first day on the road is a 12 hour day to Statesville, NC. We're taking the laptop so I probably will check in from time to time, take care everyone and ride safe.

Be careful. A 12 hour day whether on 3 or in the cage is a long day. Have an enjoyable trip!

Be safe - enjoy the trip.

I agree, 12 hours is a long day. We usually limit our travel to about 450 miles in the car and about 250 - 300 on the bike.

Mrs and I pushed it a bit last year on the bike to test ourselves, we did 3000 miles in 6 days around the UP. We surprisingly were not that tired at the end of the week. We saw plenty of road… lol

We made it up here to Ohio just fine, our first day was 626 miles and took 11 hours and 50 minutes. We're enjoying family and some good cooking, our daughter and son-in-law are both great behind the grill. Looks like we'll be here about another week before heading home, Dr. appointments the 1st of August.
