    So can I ride a Harley Davidson Rigid Pan Head, 1000 miles non stop or 1600ks in an Iron Butt challenge? or its real name is the SADDLE SORE ??

    First time checking you out You really are an auto-masochist. Hard tail, no rain gear, no waterproof boots, and an open face helmet. You were losing motor functions too! You earned a subscription from me. You're a tough S.O.B.!

    I'm in the UK and have done the John O'Groats to Lands End ride and that's brutal, even on a comfy adventure bike! Had 450 miles to get to the start the day before, then nearly 900 miles to do the event then 450 miles home the next day. It rained non-stop from JOG to LE and ended with freezing fog for the last 100 miles, I've never been so cold and wet in my life! I slept for 18 hours when I got home!
    p.s. I remember stopping to get fuel and my feet were soaking, as I queued to pay for the fuel the lady looked as miserable as sin behind the counter and I was going to ask for two carriers for my feet and was convinced she wasn't going to give me them or at least charge me. I asked for them and she said with a really sour face, "Why do you want them?" I said, "To put over my feet to keep them dry when I change my socks as I'm piss wet through and freezing cold"... She shrugged as if to say `fair enough mate` and handed them over!

    Having done a few of these rides I would say to others who are planning there first ride,plan meticulously,know the fuel range of your bike,always carry a spare amount of fuel and carry appropriate wet weather gear,because when you get cold you can make mistakes, with that said well done Danny.👍

    Danny, you are a true road warrior, and you should be very proud of yourself for what you have just achieved on a rigid chopper, especially in that type of weather. And a big thank you for sharing this video with us all.And it was great to see that you got to the halfway point safely and than back home safely. That's the main thing. And I'd like to finish off by saying that is one gorgeous Harley Davidson chopper.I'm coming to a young 68 years old next birthday and I'm still dreaming of owning an Harley Davidson chop like that one,take care of it,it's such a beautiful m/cycle.

    First 15 minutes is riding in the dark and petrol stations 😮. Oh and rain!!! Of course the thermals aren’t going to work if you are soaked to the skin through a lack of waterproofs 😂. I stay a fan because of Danny’s tenacity to keep on keeping on through his own lack of preparation.

    Right on! Me and three bros did the Iron Butt Saddlesore Challenge (the one you’re on) in 2021 and the Butt Burner last year. That one nearly killed me. 2,710 km in 32hrs. The last 400 km was pushing past my limit. My head started nodding and when my eyes closed for even a second my mind would try to convince me, “just for a minute, just a short minute.” I’ve never fallen asleep at the wheel but I get how one can trick themselves. It was decided I separate from the group and ride my own line that last 400 km after we’d fuelled up and I took 20 to shake it off. I’d been following the whole trip (junior rider) and those taillights were starting to mesmerize me. That was all I needed. I cranked the throttle and poured on the gas and the Adrenalin kicked in. Made some miles in short order. And, thanks be to God and a good motorcycle instructor, I am here to tell the tale.

    That's a brutal time to set off with no sleep and confront the winter wind blast... What doesn't kill us makes us stronger is so very true... Most things we think are too difficult often prove they aren't. Indeed, we all need to STOP OVERTHINKING everything in life and just do! What's the worst that can happen? Die? Well so be it, get comfortable with it 😉Nice work Danny, ridden well 👍

    Dude, well done! Sorry to laugh at your pain but that was hilarious. No suspension, no fenders, no windshield, suicide clutch/shifter, no rain gear, open faced helmet, I'm guessing no ear plugs, random blinkers, a headlight with the brightness of a candle, GoPro held together with rubber band, freezing temps and only one glove..but all in your happy place. ...and you did the entire ride on the wrong side of the road (hello from USA).

    Man, you really like to test the limits of what appropriate and effective riding gear is, based on the conditions lol. My Nike Dunks would be home in my closet for sure, even though they are GTX I’d be wearing my FXRG GTX boots with merino wool socks, GTX gauntlet gloves, merino wool first layer + proper insulated and waterproof pants and jacket, a balaclava + my smart wool neck gator, and a FULL FACE HELMET! 😂
    Props to you for completing your mission… it definitely looked very unpleasant and certainly a test of endurance however with my gear I’d have been much more comfortable, warm and dry in those conditions. My cold weather riding season is approaching and I’m prepared! In fact I just got my first pair of heated gloves to connect to the battery tender so I’m looking forward to testing those out. Ride safe!

Oh, and it was warm weather with a brief shower. And we did it about the same time as yourself. But we did stop for lunch and dinner. So not the same caliber as yourself but, we did it. Good job as always and hope to meet you some day and shake the Legends hand.
