We did around 140 miles Friday and I think 125 on Saturday, but Saturday was all about the Museum.

There and back we did a total of 1012 miles in the 4 days.

We had a couple from Arkansaw that did over 1500 miles and they did it on a new 2018 T120. They were 74 and 72 years young.

A couple from Ohio did over 1400 miles.

I do not plan these Rallies with a lot of riding in mind.
I plan them with a highlighted stop each day and a social evening.

Friendships are forever

I just watched this again trying to figure out the route, where 18 crosses the Big Muddy and where the National Motorcycle Museum is. I guess its like the Baseball Hall of Fame someone had to do it and that's where they put their extensive collection.
