TJ, Yes - I successfully completed the ride within the 24 hour time limit.
All necessary paperwork is on hand but the formal application has not been lodged yet - Is there a time limit on lodging this?

As Fatman said, I didn’t start.
Thanks Fatman and TJ.

What a great report Glen, I enjoyed that and with the video I found myself leaning at my laptop through the corners with you. I loved it when Martin on his K1600 coming along side you in the vid.

I know from when LTP and I rode this Insane ACT IBA ride in 2017, the mental concentration for me was at a new level to our "normal" IBA rides, and it didn't really let up much for the whole time. You and all the riders did a fantastic effort to complete this challenge.

Thanks for the entertaining story.

Well, what can I say, great, great and great. Great read, great photos and to top it off, great video. A hard ride made easier by so much help from others. Isn't that what long distance riding is all about. Cheers.

I was the other rider on an ST1300. I have installed an MCC Cruise control. I couldn't do the long distances without it, as I have arthritis in my hands.
Yes, I wondered about that dead roo. It was gradually beaten off the road by the traffic.
Many thanks for the RR. It was good to get another rider's insights. A few new ideas for embellishing Ride Reports there.

I have thought of installing cruise control but have always baulked at the price as the ST was more of a toe in the water for a more touring orientated bike. Now that it seems to be staying I may have to reconsider that.

Great reports Glen and Bill.
Gutted I couldn't make it, but the consolation is a newly-minted grand-daughter, Rosie, at 2.45 kg, with both mother & daughter doing very well.
I'll make sure 'family' doesn't get in the way for the next one..........

 

[Ed.]

Congrats, Grandpa Bill!

 

[IBA-Tiger]

Thx Ed, that's No.3, most likely the last.

 

[HACKLE]

Congratulations to all involved, especially mother and daughter Bill.

Congratulations Bill and family.

You were missed in Canberra for the ACT Insanity ride. Next time.
