SaddleSore 1000 - AKA Iron Butt

Event date: 
Sat, 07/15/2023 - 4:00am

Damn, my a$$ is SORE!

Are you ready? Not sure if I am, but we'll give it a whirl.

Planning an iron butt ride from Omaha NE to Grand Forks ND and back. For those of you that may not know, an iron butt is 1000 miles in 24 hours.

Well meet at Casey's on 18174 Emiline St (just off of Harrison St) and start riding at 4:00AM and head north to Grand Forks ND. Lunch will be at Joe Black's Bar and Grill (118 N 3rd St #112). From there, it's back to Omaha and end up at the HyVee Fast and Fresh on Q and Harrison St. The route is primarily interstate riding and I have planned a few stops for fuel, stretching, snacks and drinks (Gatorade, water - those kinds). Estimated return time is 10:00PM

For more details and what's required (for recognition, patch, etc), take a look at the info posted on the Iron Butt website (link listed below)

As the date gets closer, I put together a meeting and go over the details for the event.
