Default First long trip.

First long trip on the Ultra. My 5.5 hour ride from PA to Ocean City, MD turned into a 7.5 hour voyage. Ride was good overall if it wasn't for road construction. All I can say is I am glad I made switch from my Street Bob. Nothing but Ultra's for me in the future.

Street bob not comfortable or not designed for long trips, If I were to add another bike I would love a denim black street bob for in-town commuting. Cant really sit in a seat without a backrest with this decrepit back of mine, maybe to work and back but it's hard to say.
