Yup, I heard about the 2017 IBR SS1K ride ( I was the guy who organized it
). I'm hoping to do the same for next year, but of course can't plan or post anything specific until I know where the ride will end. And I also need to talk to Mike, before I go ahead with anything. I'm planning on contacting him after the 1st of the year. In addition to posting the ride on the IBA Event Calendar, I also add a thread on the ADV Riders Forum.
BTW, I'm planning another All Yooperland SS1K on June 22nd next year - >1K miles all done in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Will start & end in Iron Mountain.
