Cycle World- Euro Cannonball article
Just made the news stand. Article on riding in the Euro Cannonball race. It's well written with the author riding a 14. It's a must read story and quite exciting. Nothing I would want to do but it does get your blood flowing.
Stats at the end of the race--
75 competitors
3230 miles
4 bikes impounded
109 tickets
$17,499 in fines
6 crashes
2 broken bones
No deaths
I understand the US Cannonball run is coming up March 13, LA to Vegas but a seven day secret route. Is anyone on this website participating?

According to the article you have to be invited to take part in the U.S. Cannonball. Great article BTW. Really shows what the bike is capable of regarding speed and endurance.

Oh yeah also in the magazine is a must read article on cornering under the Ridecraft section by Doc Wong. Learned a lot in there on what NOT to do.
