When I did it way back in Medieval times both times I took about 19 1/2 hours, I was handicapped by a small fuel range and some would say by riding a Ducati, there were quite a few people who did it considerably fasterOriginally Posted by jrandom
I didn't exceed 120kmh and only stopped for gas, but I had to refuel around every 160-180km

Yeah, my best was on the Beemer in a shade under 19 hours but conditions were perfect and all I was trying to do was finish inside 24 hours. Everyone who has done it has a different perspective about the ride compared with those who haven't!

2005, I was on a 250.
2006, I didn't have a bike.
2007, my left arm was in a cast.
2008, I had no licence.
2009, being a bicycle courier for the year left me broker than a broke thing and completely incapable of affording the cost of the event.
2010... we'll see.

Yup, I should've hardened up and done it that year. I seem to recall Hitcher saying so at the time.

Hmmm. 2010. The 24th GC. Good practice for the 25th. Only five more to get my mug!
