Interesting post.........

I've been considering a long range raid into Eastern Europe later this summer. I was wondering if 1000 miles in a day was realisitic. I think such a ride would stretch my stamina and concentration to the absolute limits. I'll probably end up getting an evening ferry and trying to knock of 2 or 3 hundred miles that night, so I'm only left with 700 to cover the next day. Be doing it on my 900ss, so perhaps not quite as comfortable as an ST.

Any thoughts on cracking the 1000 mile mark? I reckon doing it in 24 hours is probably doable, with a 5 or 6 hour sleep in the middle. But doing it straight withouth breaks, I'm not sure.
