DAYTONA BEACH to MYRTLE BEACH to LAS VEGAS 2008

SCROLL DOWN FOR PICTURES

We road from Daytona Beach FL. to Myrtle Beach SC. partied for 2 and 1/2 day left 12 non on Saturday then road to Las Vegas NV. 2457 miles in less than 72 hrs and arrived in Tuesday morning. We did a 1008 mile day on Monday from Oklahoma City to Kingman AZ. in 16 hrs and also had Dawns pipes mounting bracket broke in Amarillo TX. and set us back quite a bit average speed would have been 85 miles an hour and stops were no longer than 10-15 minutes though a few stops might have been longer ! I left with a hang over and had the flu on Sunday [or it felt like it ] but we seemed to be able to skate through with out any rain except a few drops between Birmingham AL. and Memphis TN. mostly  sunshine all the rest of the way . total mile was 3017 the only thing we wish is that we could have spent time seeing the country in stead of taking a tour of the gas stations of America !!! This ride was a hoot and was for bringing some of my bikes back to Las Vegas so we have enough to ride to Sturgis for my 50th birthday ride [I'm not 50 till sept 7th 2008 but I'm celebrating for 6 weeks!!]  if you ever do a

" IRON BUTT 1000 MILES IN A DAY" get some rest first and dont eat too much on the stops stay away from sugar and plenty of water and protein but small portions of food when I ate too much I got very sleepy and highway hypnosis Energy drinks only work for a few minutes careful with those they have lots of sugar in them ! the 5 hour energy boosters work ok for about 2 hrs. but their small and not loaded with sugar ... stay away from those that are cheaper they taste like SHIT!!
