Your Longest Ride?

When I was a kid I would ride my BMX about 15 miles each way to a park out by the river..

I can't say I've gone to far on my Motorcycle.. I've only been riding 1 year and haven't done much other than go to work and a few rides around town.

One of the guys here at work did his 2nd Iron Butt Rally this year and placed 13th overall.
He did 12,500 miles in 11 days on his FJR1300

204 Miles from Seattle to Portland (STP)

The STP is annual ride with about 10,000 bicyclist doing either a 2 day or a 1 day ride. I did it in one two years ago, then over the summer this year I did a one day ride around Mount Rainier, 150 miles with 10,000 feet of elevation gain, then 2 days later I did a 3 day, 3 mountain pass ride for the same amount of miles and elevation. I have only been on my bike twice since then.

Maybe not the most miles, but for sure the longest ride was in April '73. Yuma to Denver and back on a CB-350 Honda. Motor heat siezed twice in the desert and I was riding in 6" of snow that night! The return trip wa Colorado in the daytime and across the desert by moonlight!

I've never done an overnight two-wheeled ride, so I guess the longest would be about 30 miles over the Ōtarumitōge Pass the day I bought my new cross-training cycle a decade ago. I hadn't ridden for several years, so my butt hurt like heck the next day. But if it's two legs you're talking about, I did a 17-day walking pilgrimage from Osaka to Ise and from Ise back to Kyoto in 1989, a total of about 350 kilos (I guess; not sure about the distance).
