Default Doing the Iron Butt.. leaving tonight...

I'm going to leave tonight approx. 3:00 or 4:00 am.
Leaving Kent and riding to Knoxville H-D. ... then back!
For those who believe in prayer, please, I'm asking for safety and wisdom on this ride. I'm doing it solo. Please remember me if you will, I'll need HIS guidence for sure as many times now I know that I've ridden longer than was safe, so I do need HIS wisdom.
Thanks all.........

Be careful. May the skies be clear and the roads smooth. You'll make it.

Be carefull out there... prayers sent for a safe return. I just rode to the GAP and back but it wasn't in the same day. That's about what it would take for an iron butt for me, coming from Detroit.

You can mark old Shovelmike here as one who definitely believes in the power of prayer and I have said a sincere prayer that you have safe travel. May God bless you in this pursuit and may you have a great time. I have to give a lot of credit to you "Ironbutts", my glutius maximus seems to be constructed of a material much less durable.

I'mmmm baaack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to you all..... I did have a safe ride and the skies were clear and roads were smooth.
1018 miles in 18 1/2 hours... and I feel great.
Everyone should have Mustang seats, I swear by them. I have no pains at all, well maybe a little in my right ankle, from my foot on the highway peg for so long.
Thanks again for the prayers.... HE answered!!!!!
