I sat there and read all 38 pages as well. I wouldn't want to ride one of my 650's that distance....what he's doing is nucking futs. I've done some pretty whacko things in my time but this guy makes me seem quite normal in comparison. It will be interesting to see if and when he makes it.

I actually had stumbled across that site once before. There is another loon that writes well and has had some excellent adventures. Here is the link to his thread.
