Default Ironbutt on SV

There I did it. Nearly 20 hours after departure, I returned home from a one-day LA-Reno round trip. Total distance traveled was 1,099 miles.

Not feeling the saddle sore just yet. I am sure I will feel it tomorrow.

I was on my SV650S and my buddy was on his SV1000. We both agreed that the next time, if there is a next time, we will do it on bikes with at least 400 miles of range so that we don't waste so much time in the gas stations.

Tomorrow, I will compose my thoughts and write some more. I will also need to complete my paperworks and submit them to IBA.
