Tips for Riding Long Distance
This is about how to cover a lot of miles in a day on a motorcycle. Mile-eating isn't quite as much fun as touring; having plenty of time to stop and smell the roses, but for those who use a motorcycle as more than just a form of recreation, sometimes you need to go far in a short time. These are things I've learned covering long distances in a day. They have more to do with you as the rider than what type of bike you ride.
I never mention this in the video, but you should ABSOLUTELY wear full riding gear for long rides. Safety aside, jeans and a shirt make you tired over hundreds of miles... how?... they flap relentlessly, wearing on your nerves. You can also get killer sun/wind burn on exposed areas. Think gear is too hot? So did I, and I rode that way until I started thinking about the inevitability of a mishap. I'm from AL and lived in TX for three years... I know hot, and I can tell you that my full ventilated gear is still way more comfortable for long, fast riding. This is even more true in desert weather where it gets even hotter but the air is dry. In short, I now finish a 700 mile ride with much more energy and in a much better mood then when I rode in jeans and a shirt.
