2017, in retirement, I rode 49 states and 6 provinces.
2016, still employed, I rode 48 states and 1 province (Ontario).

I did not spend a lot of time in any one state other than my home state and local states like CO, UT and AZ.

There is an IronButt challenge to ride 48 states in 10 days. I took a bit longer for my 48 as I did it in 3 different trips of about 7 days per trip.

That is pretty impressive for working Simon.  My problem is I like to spend a little time in each state seeing it.

That is quite the ride, 48 in 10 days.  Wow

Good problem. I need to spend more time in some of the states I've "visited". Utah is a state I have visited a couple of times now. I'll be back to a lot of the others for extended stays.

Interestingly, time in the saddle for the "ride" is also very therapeutic.

It really is.  I really enjoyed and was fully rejuvenated when I returned home from my SS1000 and BB1500.  I'm actually looking at doing a BB1000 this time off just cause, do a 500 out and back in 16 hours.

Interestingly, I finished a SS1000 last weekend. It was off the beaten path with photos required at 9 stops. 10 of us started, 9 finished. One person did it in 17.5 hours. The rest of us were around 19 hrs 10 minutes.

The last 3 photos were in the dark.

That sounds interesting.  Was it one of the Tour of Honor rides?

Not Tour of Honor though I think we passed 3 of the TOH locations including NM Vietnam Memorial.
