The big Guzzis are also designed for cruising and comfort, but will handle the twisties with ease. I've put in many 800-900 mile days on mine, and lived to tell about it. Was Ben Carson riding along with you? |

No, but my wife has - when she wasn't on her own bike. http://moto.zombdrive.com/image-mode...iii-1.jpg.html That's what she drove. Not nearly as big and powerful and fast as your Ducati, but a very nice bike nevertheless. How's that Ducati doing anyway? Does it get kept in your Maryland red barn? -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

I haven't taken what would be considered a *long* motorcycle ride since the 1960s, when I drove my Honda from Milford, Connecticut, to Kansas, around 1250 miles if memory serves, but I took five or six days to do it, because I was taking a bunch of short side trips off the main route. It was a "fun" ride for me. The longest rides I've taken in recent years were under 250 miles. Spending all day on a motorcycle has no more appeal to me than spending the night in a towable motel room after driving all day in a pick-me-up truck towing it. |

I've ridden to Virginia Beach, Dover, Ocean City, Purcellville, and a few other places. I prefer state highways, whenever possible, to the big interstates. Lower speeds, usually less traffic, fewer big trucks, et cetera. |
