So far all my screwups with my bird have been stand related.
Heal fast, but heal right.

Dale, I can't believe you let us down with the record book thing. What a lame excuse.



Only joking.


I didn't donate any $ last time but I've got my Paypal problems fixed so if you're going to try in the future I'll kick in a bit.

He came through Ely on saturday the 14th while doing one of the 1500 mile loops. He pulled up, waved, and left. He didn't even bother shifting onto neutral. He was dripping gas out the overflow tubes of his aux fuel cells and left a long stain in the parking lot.
Don't know if he managed to finish.

I'm excited to hear about the healing process...I missed out on the last round of donations, but will definitely get in on the next.

God Speed Dale

Dale,
Congratulations...

So how many gallons? how many tires? How much sleep did you get?

~3 fillups per day.... about 18-19 gallons per fillup.

I used just one front Avon Storm - it went the distance, including the 640-mile dash to the start line in Fernley, and the same amount to return home!

But it took 3 Avon Storm rears to do 6 BBGs. I had to buy a rear Pilot Road in order to finish Days 6 & 7

I averaged ~ 4 to 4.5 hours of sleep every night until Days 6 and 7

Here's the link:

BBG Hell Week - Mission Complete!
