I'm sure I'd be towing mine too. Biking is great but on LONG hauls, I'd rather have less atmospheric intrusion, if you know what I mean. Plus satellite radio, cushy seat, drinks, snacks, and all my crap. Plus it is easier to nap.
.... sorry , but I gotta go jam my finger down my throat guys ...LOL..........
.. trailer ?? pffffffffffttt..........!!!!!

Many years ago I rode to a golf course
on my bike (my friend took my clubs in his car earlier). I had to be there at a certain time. I hadn't been back to riding for very long, and it was a very long way with a lot of heavy traffic, When I finally got there, without a break, I got off the bike and couldn't even hold it up.
I didn't golf very well either. I've always been a sprinter rather than a distance runner

Did over 850 miles in 12 hours a couple of years ago - 4 fuel stops (I think) a cold pie and a couple of cigarettes. I was tired, sure, and went to bed early.
Rode back two days later, took a couple of hours longer, got off, had supper, etc etc.
So don't tell me older guys can't hack it Sprocket.
No trailer, no Garmin, no sweeties to munch on the seat next to me, no speed control, no coolerbox, and no company.
Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffftttt ttttttttttttttttttttt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I regularly do over 400 in a day when visiting friends here.
I'll ride your wheels off anytime, Lobsterman.....................!!!!!!
And I'm sure you'll get the same from Steve when he sees this.
Wotta wussie !

except that I stand by my long long history of ridding way more than 10 ***** hrs to get some where here in Aus many times over the years ...I once rode my 250cc trail bike 20 hrs interstate and back to watch a club race that a mate was entered into ..
Me and Kerri quite often do 5-6 hrs day rides with no problem and she is a supper ***** on the bike ....
I cant wait to see what Pete says to that statement ...I know what he has done in the past and in what weather he has done it in too ...!!!
Yu shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house Mark ..
Hows does 7000klms / 4200miles in 5 days straight carrying a full load and me misses cut it for yu ...???
and don't get me wrong ...om not hanging chit about yu trailer Mark ... but some of us have very long history's of very long trips across country and never used trailers ...
and as I said mate , it is everyones individual choice as to how they travel on bikes ...
me , om a get on and go ...no fuss , little planning , and ****ing gone !! LOL
....and I do not avocate that anyone else take or use my ****ed up travelling methodology either ..

Thats what you get traverlling in Aussie..................Long distance,very long distance.My best two up was 5.30am till 10pm.Covered 1300kms in one day for a 21st Birthday.
Just jump on the Bike with an idea of where you wish to get to,5or 6 hours later in 40*c mid summer aint the smartest move by any means........
