The Four Corners ride is really not that crazy. One has 21 days to complete it and you don't have to finish where you started - you're done when you hit the fourth corner. A few years ago, a friend of mine and I did it by riding only about 500 miles/day, stopping at every wacky roadside attraction, spending a day here and there visiting friends and relatives, and still finishing in around 16 days. It's really a tour, and not a tough ride at all. Highly recommended.

If a person has the time the 4 corners is a great adventure. I did it 10 years ago on a GL1200. left my home in Southern Oregon and rode to the Mexican border South of San Diego for my start. I went counter clockwise to finish in Blaine Washington in 15 days. I toured the USS Constitution in Boston, MA and saw the church where Paul Revere saw the lantern before he started his famous ride. In Key West, FL I took a ride in an ultra light on floats and the pilot let me fly. I camped most nights including a fabulous camp ground just South of Boston.
Great fun.
Great fun.
The history is interesting, and obviously motorcyclist 'crazy' was happening long before the Iron Butt Association existed.
