yeah... panhandle, 40 miles north of Panama City. In a little town called Chipley. Ocala huh? On my way back from Orlando I ran into the Hot Rod Power Tour cars on I-75. Hemi 'Cudas, big block Camaros, Trans Ams, and GTOs. This one guy had a blown Hemi 'Cuda that was almost completlely carbon fiber... He was haulin' and that car was LOUD. I stayed around the group up until about Gainseville when I hit bad rain. That was really an experience, we were cruising at 90 and even up to 100mph most of the time. Fun stuff...

RE: Longest Distance I've Been
I rode my F3 from Salem, OR to Washington, DC. I took the southern route through California and on over to Phoenix (one ride = 24 hrs). The second leg was from Phoenix to San Antonio (Another 24 hrs). From San Antonio, I went to Columbia, SC (23 hrs)and the last leg was to DC (10 hrs). I did the total trip in four days and was a little tender afterwards. The trip was for the most part uneventful with the exception of one break down in BFE. Luckily there was a bike race down the road and I was able to get back on the road in a few hours. My road trip was worth every red bull and snickers bar.

The most I rode in one day was 850 miles.... from Delaware to Michigan. By the time I hit the Michigan boarder, it hurt just to get on and off the bike.... needless to say, I was sore for a few days afterward. But it still was a good trip.
