Post subject: 3 Flags Run Mexico to US to Canada......

Next year a few insane friends and I are planning a 3 Flags Run. From Mexico-US-Canada in 24 hours. The shortest distance I could come up with is about 1420 miles. If you do the math for a 20 hour run it comes to something like 71 miles an hour. This is NOT going to be for the faint of heart. I'm talking HARD & FAST HAMMER DOWN Riding. Anyone feeling particularly masochistic?
Its in the beer drinking stage at this point, But I've done some hard runs in the past. Columbia SC to Louisville KY 500 Miles in 6 hours. Jacksonville Fl to Orlando fl 139 miles in 90 minutes. Columbia SC to Atlanta Ga 210 Miles in 2 hours 20 minutes. So anyone up for it.....

The speed we'll be rolling I doubt there will be much Pic taking with one hand. But I had set up my cam-corder on the bars shooting through the wind screen. You can set it up so it take a snap shot or run film. Might have to carry a few sims cards to set up and take shots that way. We do have to document so I am carrying my other camera. Should be interesting....
