Pioneer Ride Of The Century Discussion Thread!!!

2-250 mile stretches? That's probably not too bad. I couldn't sleep last night I've been thinking about this trip. I guess it fully sank in and my mind doesn't let me sleep sometimes with things swirling around.
The miles will be easy on the rigs but people riding wow. I've been in ours for a full day before and it wasn't too bad but I was tired the next day. Not sure about the rest of the country but as pretty as Montana is it's a big state to cross. Idaho will be nothing and will really feel like the home stretch. Need a nice butt cushion and plenty of fluids. Potassium will be important. Quick energy and small meals will be important. The biggest thing I see is on the riders by far. The machine won't care that trip will be like a couple hundred in the trails but need to really go over your personal list. You all need to stay up on energy. Also I'm thinking a throttle lock of some sort

I'm actually working on electronic cruise control. I'm a fat kid at heart, so food won't be a problem. I'm still toying with rzr or general buckets.

Why couldn't you? You got over a year to plan.

Potassium, magnesium, B-12, D&E, too. And don't forget Milwaukee's Best!

Mmmmm. The Beast. I like the light blue one. Although Busch Light is my usual.

Y'all may forget, while some guys don't, 2,000 miles a week plus is routine for me. Really, I need to grab my shower bag and a cooler of Mt dew and water and I'm good to go.

That's hilarious, here's a pic of my fridge just now, that's my regular too. I just said the Beast because after the cost of an expedition of this magnitude, that's going to be our budget, lol.

Nah, F that. There's always beer money.

 

[CumminsPusher]

Well as long as you guys drink light beer we all have something in common and won't be hanging out next to the bottom of a tree.

I do know that and if anyone can get er done it's you but now I'm overly thinking about it. I just want you all to stay safe it's no joke the miles especially at 50 on a sxs. Monumental really. I'm so excited and wish it were this summer but I will be at least making part of the trip with you all. We need to get the route in play asap so I can start planning on where to cut in and get this side ready. I'm hopeful people from the northwest will make this trip also. There are a lot of Pioneers within 500 of us and this may shape up to be huge.

Very true but I'm hoping a few will be at the finish line when you all bust through the tape!
