JustinNck1 Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Tomorrow morning I am leaving for my first Iron butt Certification. I will be doing a Saddlesore 1000. Leaving Coolville and going to the Gateway Arch in St Louis, then turning around and coming back. Got all my documentation situated, bike is all ready to go, got my new Aerostich today and took it for a 25 mile test run (Also taking my old gear just in case). Packed some food in the tank bag, got the Camelbak for fluids, and the Garmin for GPS. I think I am ready to go. Now off to get some sleep for me. Leaving at 5am, hoping to avoid the night riding as much as possible. Below is my SPOT tracker page for tomorrow. http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=0V7ZlCxzdnSoREZdxDf6nb3yJdkhOAjzn Edited August 12, 2017 by 2talltim 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Looks like he forgot the Spot link. Since he posted it on Facebook going to assume adding it is ok. http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=0V7ZlCxzdnSoREZdxDf6nb3yJdkhOAjzn Edited August 12, 2017 by Tonik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 2talltim Posted August 12, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Just ran into this guy in Canal Winchester says he's doing a Ironbutt too but he's only a 940 something miles. This guy is a slacker but better looking than Justin. Edited August 12, 2017 by 2talltim 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted August 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Just got home. 1,060 miles. Actually got up early and left a little before 4am. St Louis traffic sucked and I got lost trying to get to the arch, but other than that, pretty uneventful. The new suit worked great, seat did it's job as well, no sore butt. My neck and shoulders are a different story. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drc32-0 Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Yep,I really like my R-3 lite,but they are a little cumbersome if you're doing a ride with a lot of stops...long distance they are great!I I told you when you got that FJR that they have long legs...it looks like you're putting them to use.Congratulations on your IBA run.

The FJR has been a great bike. Just turned 34k during this trip. Hopefully it will hit 100k someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinNck1 Posted August 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Paperwork all done and submitted electronically. I knew if i didn't send it right away, I would procrastinate and never submit it, so I sat down while it was fresh in my mind and got it done.
