Well that's about a 49mph average over the course of about 5 days.  Not bad 
considering that includes piddily things like SLEEP and FOOD, not to mention 
takin a piss and gettin gas now and then.  Real on road speed would be more 
like 80mph, AVERAGE.  Now I'm not one to nit pick, but did anyone happen to 
catch the editorial by Aaron Frank in the latest Motorcyclist?  Seems 
Arron's recounting of doing a saddle sore 2000 caught the ire of Mr. 
Kneebone.  Heaven forbid anyone on an LD run should SPEED or pull a wheelie, 
or drink some Red Bull.  What a crock.  Kneebone rescinded Frank's IBA cert 
for doing what every other IBA participant does, every time they ride.  I 
call bullshit.  Frank's transgression was to publish his adventure.  
Kneebone is a jerk and a hypocrite.
