I find when riding in big groups (10+ bikes) you tend to ride further with less stops. Anyony else find this to be true? You know, the follow the leader thing but usually everyone takes a turn in the lead postion.

How long have you been riding? I found that as I was just getting started that I would get fatigued after an hour or so. As I rode more often i found that I got used to riding. I started to put my feet up on the back pegs and would lay down on the tank. Now I can ride till i run out of money for gas. LOL

2-3 hours as long as traffic keeps moving. stop and go traffic cuts that time down by a little. more stress on hands and back.

I could ride till my tank went dry, fill'er up and go some more. It really depends on the day, how much time I have, where i want to go, do I have any of my buddies riding with me, is my girlfriend riding on back ETC. Any one of those reasons will help to determine how far and how long. I love to ride. Its plain and simple. Then again I have no problem ridding when its 30 degrees outside or if its pouring rain. I ride in the rain all the time. You might think im crazy but its very good practice for those times you get caught off guard by mother nature. I truely feel that you should get plenty of seat time in all types of weather so you are better prepared. Especially when riding at night.

I agree mos deffinitly. When you get use to it you'll put a few hours on it without even thinking twice and after a bit you might like riding in the rain. From late april till early october the car is dead to me. I ride everyday no doubt. The cold is a different story 40 or below is sand in the box time!!!
