    First time checking you out You really are an auto-masochist. Hard tail, no rain gear, no waterproof boots, and an open face helmet. You were losing motor functions too! You earned a subscription from me. You're a tough S.O.B.!

    I'm in the UK and have done the John O'Groats to Lands End ride and that's brutal, even on a comfy adventure bike! Had 450 miles to get to the start the day before, then nearly 900 miles to do the event then 450 miles home the next day. It rained non-stop from JOG to LE and ended with freezing fog for the last 100 miles, I've never been so cold and wet in my life! I slept for 18 hours when I got home!
    p.s. I remember stopping to get fuel and my feet were soaking, as I queued to pay for the fuel the lady looked as miserable as sin behind the counter and I was going to ask for two carriers for my feet and was convinced she wasn't going to give me them or at least charge me. I asked for them and she said with a really sour face, "Why do you want them?" I said, "To put over my feet to keep them dry when I change my socks as I'm piss wet through and freezing cold"... She shrugged as if to say `fair enough mate` and handed them over!

    Having done a few of these rides I would say to others who are planning there first ride,plan meticulously,know the fuel range of your bike,always carry a spare amount of fuel and carry appropriate wet weather gear,because when you get cold you can make mistakes, with that said well done Danny.👍

    Right on! Me and three bros did the Iron Butt Saddlesore Challenge (the one you’re on) in 2021 and the Butt Burner last year. That one nearly killed me. 2,710 km in 32hrs. The last 400 km was pushing past my limit. My head started nodding and when my eyes closed for even a second my mind would try to convince me, “just for a minute, just a short minute.” I’ve never fallen asleep at the wheel but I get how one can trick themselves. It was decided I separate from the group and ride my own line that last 400 km after we’d fuelled up and I took 20 to shake it off. I’d been following the whole trip (junior rider) and those taillights were starting to mesmerize me. That was all I needed. I cranked the throttle and poured on the gas and the Adrenalin kicked in. Made some miles in short order. And, thanks be to God and a good motorcycle instructor, I am here to tell the tale.

Well so be it, get comfortable with it 😉Nice work Danny, ridden well 👍

    You're a legend for sure Danny. I did this challenge several years ago BUT, 2 of us did it on CVO Road Glide Ultra's and the other 2 (1 being a girl) on a 2003 and a 2011 FatBoys. Oh, and it was warm weather with a brief shower. And we did it about the same time as yourself. But we did stop for lunch and dinner. So not the same caliber as yourself but, we did it. Good job as always and hope to meet you some day and shake the Legends hand.
    Waiting on your next adventure!

    Man, you really like to test the limits of what appropriate and effective riding gear is, based on the conditions lol. My Nike Dunks would be home in my closet for sure, even though they are GTX I’d be wearing my FXRG GTX boots with merino wool socks, GTX gauntlet gloves, merino wool first layer + proper insulated and waterproof pants and jacket, a balaclava + my smart wool neck gator, and a FULL FACE HELMET! 😂
    Props to you for completing your mission… it definitely looked very unpleasant and certainly a test of endurance however with my gear I’d have been much more comfortable, warm and dry in those conditions. My cold weather riding season is approaching and I’m prepared! In fact I just got my first pair of heated gloves to connect to the battery tender so I’m looking forward to testing those out. Ride safe!

    I've done it in a decked out Peterbilt and I have done it in a ragged out freightliner day cab with spring suspension (no bags) which is honestly pretty close to the same ride. I'd like to try it on a ridged bobber I've had in my head for years now. Budget and time off worry me more than the actual ride, sure it's only 1000mi, 500 out and back but do you have buddy's willing to head your way in the middle of the night? Are you going to at least get a nap before work Monday morning? I'll do this one day ❤

    That was without a doubt one of the funniest videos I have watched in a long time. You rode a hardtail, with a candle for a headlight, unreliable electrics, shit fuel range, no waterproofs, no heated clothing and covered 1000 miles..... in crap weather, and then just to add to the fun.....one glove!!!. Well done for your tenacity but there has to an easier way to make a buck......A rider in good gear on a modern adventure bike would have made that look a whole lot easier and safer. But thanks for the effort :)

    I've done it but not on a ridged. It was in 2003 and I was riding a 1981 Suzuki GS1100 with nothing but sagging springs in the front end. My speedo cable broke 20 miles from the finish but I had my 3 gas receipts so the finish line checker had me run down the strip to prove that the speedo was broken and I got credit. I took just over 23 hours but I stopped to stay with a mate who decided to change his rear brakes at a checkpoint and that took over an hour. Boy did I reek after that ride. I was filthy with rings of dirt in my neck and arms. I had a rigid triumph but after it cracked the frame twice I got rid of it. Rain will take the gumption right out of you.

    Too much to write so I'll keep it short. I have done the SS1000 TWICE. The first time we (English Advanced Motorcyclists) smashed the American record of a group ride. USA 17 riders - England 19 riders finished, (2 0f 21 didn't) all passed. I rode Suzuki GSXR600 the first time and a Kawasaki ZX900 the 2nd. Up to Scotland, across and back. I was the 1st English LADY to ever complete this so I was quite proud of myself. Our photographer and a pillion didn't count) Certificates/badges and other stuff I still have. A very big thank you to Mike Kneebone, chairman if I.B.A. and our organiser. We had a lot more fun than you did!...
