Hey alifecoach .

We under stand that you have a whole hide supporting your arse and you will do those sort of distances with out any problem

But you do remember the rest of us still ride monsters and our seats only support 50% of our arse :'(

John Wayne was my hero but dont want walk like a cow boy ;D

No excuses for you, I ride a proper head down bum up sportbike, and have no problems doing 800+km a day. Just get yourself a sheepskin bum rest and learn to rest on the tank every so often

It's a bit hard to lean on the tank of a Monster me thinks.
That is unless you are lying down!!!
And that many k's in 3 days or so would pretty much kill most on many bikes.
Cept of course a cruiser.....

The last day out doing 650k's was more than enough.

I would love to go and run in the new Hog with the comfy seat! [thumbsup] [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

But alas I have things planned for Friday.

I will be getting out one of the other days though.

Thanks for all your comments. I guess that's why I changed to a cruiser. (I didn't have the heart to put luggage racks on the Monster, after all it is a 'Street-fighter').

How about June long weekend? There's a rally near Woodenbong
Fri 6th - 8th June Rallyman Rally

Grevillai, Summerland Way, (next 2 Grevillia Store) - Northern NSW between Kyogle & Woodenbong. Food, alcohol, petrol, etc, available. Plenty of camping space & firewood. Live music. Free entry. Badges $10. For more info call Kog 02 66 333 104.

and the 'Ride for Daniel' on the Sunday from the Big Pineapple http://www.ridefordaniel.com/index.html

Might see some of the QLD OzMonsters there??
