Rides That Test Your Sanity
Here's mine. Oklahoma City to Denver via I-35 and I-70. It's 700 miles of torture in the summer.

The long deserted wide open spaces can put the zap on your mind if you're not used to it. Oklahoma and Colorado border each other but to ride across both if them is about 1,200 miles. Roughly the same distance as from Boston to Daytona Beach.

Now that I think about it, rush hour trying to get past Philly to the Atlantic City Express way. Crazy chit!!!
OP that long flat ride would bore the hell out of me, but at least your moving.

Uh... don't know how long it is. Longer trip I rode was about 250 km (about 150 miles) in a day, but then, Italy lacks the endless open spaces of the USA...
Most crazy thing I did was test my '07 Superglide to see how fast it would go.
I'm 6'6" by 210 pounds, rode it with saddlebags and sissy, up to 180 kph (112,5 mph) in 6th gear and it would'nt go faster than that.
****ing scary, and I don't think I'll ever do something like that ever again
No problem doing 150-170 mph in my car, but on a bike like this, I'm not comfortable at all.
