#90186 SobaCracka (User) It's best to eat crow while fresh. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1518 Made it to Georgia 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Hello, All, from sweltering Springfield, GA. 651 miles and 11.5 hours later, I arrived at my sister's at 4 yesterday afternoon. Only weather issue was a 5-minute spritz at Lake Marion, SC. I kind of expected more. I know from experience that high humidity and heat can brew up some pretty ugly storm pretty quickly, but I made it past before it did anything nasty. My behind was sore, as expected, but not nearly as sore as the last time I made this trip, so kudos to the Orth-Deluxe Seat Pad. With 250 lbs pressing down into he seat for so many hours, it definitely could have been worse. I'll probably make the return trip Friday morning. Later....   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90193 Ole (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 570 Re:Made it to Georgia 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Glad you made it there safe. That's a long time in the saddle. Better than half-way to an iron butt application. I take it she didn't miss a beat the whole way?   Logged     2005 Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90195 Flashback (Moderator) The devil to pay, and no pitch hot Moderator Posts: 4299 Re:Made it to Georgia 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Glad ya made it Earl, sounds like you had a good one..I hear the fishin is pretty good right now..enjoy...   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #90197 StarCruiser06 (User) If you can't be with the one you love... Wait! Gold Boarder Posts: 895 Re:Made it to Georgia 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Excellent! Glad the trip was... Uh, un-eventful! Enjoy your visit... BTW: Why is it, that the first thing people say, when you arrive from a long trip is... "Come on in... Sit down... have a rest..."   Logged     Over 50...?

She never missed a beat and never uttered even a small complaint. Running about 6 hours through NC and SC at 80 mph probably made her happy, cleared her sinuses a bit.   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90323 SobaCracka (User) It's best to eat crow while fresh.

Actually, my sister gave me her usual boisterous "HEY" then said, "I bet you're beat." I was just hot, for sure.   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #90333 PapaTom (User) Have Star - Will Travel Platinum Boarder Posts: 1367 Re:Made it to Georgia 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago   That's quite an accomplishment Earl. I'm with Doc...I don't think I'd have an easy time with that amount of riding either. Oh, my aching back and butt!   Logged     FREE SPIRIT 2007 Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #91414 SobaCracka (User) It's best to eat crow while fresh. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1518 Re:Made it to Georgia - AND BACK! 5 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Left Springfield, GA at 4:15 this morning. Rolled into0 my driveway at 4pm, Put the bike in the garage, put Earl into the shower, then put Earl into bed for a few hours. So, I survived 1760 miles Sunday-Friday, with 1302 of them in two days' riding. The R* performed like the champ she is. Even with the seat pad, my behind was ready to dismount at the end of the two long days. But at 651 miles each way, I have a feeling my butt would be sore even with the Ultimate Seat. Anyway, I'm back home safe and sunburned, just like I'm supposed to be.   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access.
