Ohhh man... Looks like I`m in for a cold ride! (ATTN Chicago people)
That's insane bro. It's about 30 outside afterwork right now and it's just too dang cold to ride 30 miles down the hill. Maybe ifI had better cold weather armor I might think about it. But all I got is a vented leather jacket and pantswith the zip in liner.
Oh...and uhh...900 miles??? Holy crap that's a lot. I rode from Reno to San Francisco (about 220 miles one way) and was pretty sore only halfway through when I stopped for gas in Sacramento.
I'm certainly envious that you can do that. Let us know how it goes, and have a good, fun, and safe trip brother.

You are more of a warrior than I am, I*d make it for about 2.5 miles of that trip.
If you need to borrow anything for the trip, let me know.
Have a safe trip brah.

I rode bout 540 miles in one day.. and probably 200 of them were in 22-35F and I bout froze my as$ off.. Plus my butt was KILLING me.. had to stop every 100miles or so and let the blood run back into my legs. I cant see doing 900.. you going to do it all in one day? Dont get sleepy man.. if you need a break take a break.. No need getting yourself killed. I dont know what the roads are like, since on im the west coast but watch out for black ice..
I assume you know all this.. but never hurts to be said again.. good luck bro.

Hi Jared- like I told ya in SoFla, be safe.
I wouldn't do it, but I'm a puss in the cold.
Stay warm and take your time. I'm sure you'll be fine- after all, you've done ironbutt, right?
It's just, uh, colder!
