Default 2up Distance Riding - How Far have u gone?

Hey Guys:

Trying to convince the wife that a trip from central PA to outer banks would be a great bike trip. Note: I have taken her on a short 2 1/2 hr ride to Frederick. How do you guys handle 2 up riding over distances. Stops....Riding Time......Distances.........

Background
I have the FXSTC Softail Custom, with stock King/Queen seat,-Note, I like the seat and didn't want to change out so I put a lumbar back support pad for her to bring up the slant of the stock backrest. I also have Kuryakyn ISO grips with throttle boss and switchblade pegs for me and swingwing pegs for wife. I also have engine guard with highway pegs. I feel right with mini-apes for long riding. But......I know I'll hear about it from wife.

Share your experiencees and suggestions.

we regularly ride 800 + miles per week on a 09 heritage with no problems, stopping to take in the veiws is all part of the fun....and gives each of you a break.
