anyone eles with the wild shits!

[100milesaway]

only off Sunday this week and as yet I've no plans, hopefully things would have hardened up by then if you remember, I had this dam stomach virus about 5 weeks ago and the virus decided to pay me another visit starting of last week I'm not as bad as I was, so plan on starting a 4 day week from tomorrow. if your out and about or paying a visit to the bridge let me know I really need to put some mileage on my ZZR managed to get the first service done at 580 miles 5 weeks after I pick it up, since then and due to the weather and the dam virus which I've had twice now I've only been out on my ZZR twice

Virus my . I reckon you should keep a check on what your missus is feeding you, they have been known to poison their husbands ya know. On a brighter note I will be up at the bridge on Sunday, along with a few of my pals, and will be looking to do a few miles after filling up with egg and bacon butties and vast ammounts of tea.

you can't make me  at a mere 300 miles I've ridden from Charmont france to liverpool in 10 hours a mere 722 miles and often cover 300 miles around north wales on day rides which I'm sure Mr wolf will confirm seeing that he as accompanied me on 2 occasions

[Lonewolf]

I can confirm what 2kwacks is saying. We have on more than one occasion done a 300 miler. Most I've ever personally done on the GTR in one day was 630 miles approximately when I went to Christchurch from Bradford & back to collect the new (er) GTR. I was  knackered at the end.

That is some milage boys .. 600 - 700 miles would be really knackering .. especially on a Motorw .... Sorry, I was going to write that M word but don't want to risk the health of those who are in their 60's ..... anyway as I was saying ... 600 miles cross country .... ....

On a stock 1400GTR 600 miles would kill me, but I've done over 1000 miles in 18 hours on my GTR1000 with no problems other than boredom.
The 1000 does have an ULTRA comfy seat, bar-risers, huge screen etc.
Ella and I did Weymouth and back in a day (went to see Skidmarx) so have done nearly 400 miles in a day, but we had lots of breaks.

My solo record on the 1400 is 580 miles riding back from Mellrichstadt in Germany in one day.
Had some fun on the A3 Autobahn with a ZX12R and used far too much petrol. 
An Autobahn is like a motorway but at 120 to 160Mph there is no way it can be described as boring.
Uneconomical, scary, exciting, focussed, but never boring.

he's still shaking in his boots.. the "bridge" is only around the corner form his house castle..

Yes I have read it, and as I have said many times on here,  motorways are for folk in a rush, or people who have no appreciation of the beauty to be seen whilst using other less frequented roads. I used the German autobahns once whilst on a trip to Austria, and to be honest it scared the shit  out of me. No matter how fast I was going there was ALWAYS someone in my mirror looking to go faster . Motorcycling should be fun , and I just cant see how anyone could gleen any fun from just droning along in a straight line on a bike . I still love getting a shift on, but I am never in a rush.     Dave the bridge is 43 miles from my palace in the Dales,  but I have been up there 3 times already this week, and this time of year we have to be sensible regarding how far we go, taking into account failing light, and weather conditions. BUT in summer it is not unusual for us to meet at 7 bells and not get home until 10 pm, I'm sure you will be up for some of that . Looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, unless your good lady has seen you off by then with some dodgy welks or a rancid curry.

Geoff .. sounds like you get some decent miles in to get your bacon sarnies ... even at this time of year .. commendable indeed. You are of course spot on with your idea of enjoying the ride.
