Amazing achievement, TJ.  Congratulations.

Like Gatey, I am wondering about the setup on your bike.

Any chance you could give us a list of the mods and extras on your bike? GPS, cruise control, seat, lights, screen etc. etc.

Thanks,

Marty

Waiting eagerly, TJ,  for any  insights you can give us into your bike setup.  In  awe of what you did and the work that you must have put into the preparation.  (Fascinating posts about  fatigue  management and  long distance spread sheets etc.) Not looking for pictures necessarily,  just a list of mods  would be great. :thumbs

Thanks,

Marty
