I'll be following your progress Gene, I would wish you good luck, but I've ridden with you enough to know this will be an easy cross country trip! Ride safe and I"ll look forward to hearing all about your trip when we see you in June!

My marshmallow ass was killing me after 400 miles yesterday. Couldn't (wouldn't even want to) imagine 1200 miles per day. Be safe.

I noticed Gene is a few miles east of Winslow, AZ.
Still a long way to Blanchard.

Is this an iron butt ride or is he just challenging himself.

It looks like he may have stopped in Amarillo for some sleep or something. No recent pings from his SPOT device for a couple of hours.
Update: He's moving again

No, he appears to be stuck in Amarillo and has been there for several hours. Maybe he left Amarillo and forgot to turn his SPOT back on?
