I look forward to the entirety of your tale Chris! I know I sound like a broken record, but I don't think I can thank you enough for your help in my adventure. Stories like these were part of it.

Your level of effort required by completing this on your ride of choice can't go without note. This is a difficult event for a large bike. Competing on a much smaller bike like a Sportster or a 300 Versys?... Just inspiring!

Congratulations!
