Socialized medicine? So nobody cares if you hack yourself to pieces?

Not Deals Gap, and not as nice as a Hurricane, but you can rent an MV Agusta F4 for only $225/day: http://www.coloradosportbikerentals....torcycles.html

You can have free run of my '09 KLR650, Steve!!
She's all yours! She's even got a luggage rack! And crash bars!
I wonder how long you could ride it before you die from pain? I mean, it's probably the most comfortable dual sport on the market, but It's 9.5hrs to the gap from here... lol..
I'll just assume you're in.

(btw, funny sidenote, I googled to see how far someone had actually ridden a KLR in a day, and I couldn't find a good number. However, the first site that popped up was a blog from a guy with my exact bike, riding it all around areas of my state where I've been many times. Kinda weird. I actually camp at the state park he's riding in every summer. Link here..)

I've got a cabin to myself at the moment, which isn't the most economical way to go. If anyone wants to share, let me know. I think each one has 3 sleeping berths.
