Last night I started planning a 1500 Gold ride . However its a leave from my home to New Mexico , and back home in a day or 24 hours totaling 1568 miles . My wife , and I are hitting North Arkansas in May . July ill be In Topeka Kansas with Dorey Racing for the Division 4 , and 5 sportsman motorcycle races . what part of Missouri are you in ?Congratulations Bryan; aka C10, great job !!
Do you have plans for another IBA ride ? If so I'm in !! We can ride Busa's or use cruisers, I'm in either way. I can meet you in route or start together, doesn't matter to me.
Are you going to Haya's In the Hills this year ? Location hasn't been set yet though it's usually in PA, NY, OH, WV or VA.
I'm in MO, so I could meet you and we ride to the meet up. It would be another IBA ride for sure.
Again, great job !!
... what part of Missouri ...
I just read this sad news on the MTF, 89,000 miles just as an Iron Butt Rider.
IBR legendary rider Tom Loftus passed away this morning after a lengthy battle with cancer. For those that don't follow the Iron Butt Rally, Tom had achieved 7 IBR Finishes in 10 attempts and ridden over 89,000 miles in the IBR. He had ridden all over the world literally and was one of the most knowledgeable and likeable riders you would ever meet.
Very sad to hear. I follow the IBA because i want to do 2 next season on my own.
Im sure you heard about this guy...an absolute monster

Yeah, (some) riders are crazy. I don’t see how it’s enjoyable to stay in the seat for that long. Some of these rides would be tenuous in a car and frankly, I’d rather be in my car for those distances.View attachment 1593536
My hero! Always wanted to do that. Wonder how many did it on a Busa?I just got home from a out of town project to these in the mail. One fine day I must say to put that license plate backer on.
Think might have to go to the Frame store. Now that these are done I'm planning a 1500 mile trip in 24 hours for the Bun burner Gold.
