Finally Home
I'm finally back from my Iron Butt Border to Border run. I went from Nogales Mexico to Milkriver Canada (1632 miles) in 33 hours and 3 minutes. Saw a lot of great sights, but the best part was that I never saw a drop of rain on the entire trip. It's great to be back home, but I might have to do the coast to coast run now.

Wow, that's a lot of miles in 33 hours.....I'm thinking those sites you saw went by pretty fast. You have an Iron Butt, no doubt about it. I am more of a 300-400 mile per day kind of guy myself.
Congrats on your ride. |
