As long as my shoulder surgery recovery allows this come April, I'm in.

Sweet.  This may turn into one of those epic rides with a bit of tomfoolery...

Hell, I'll throw my name in. This sounds extra fun.

Might be fun...  Can't commit at this point,  but I'm definitely interested.

First thought.

Ride to Key West and get the papers for a Iron Butt ...Sounds interesting.

Then the dates, now do I say I'm in, and buy new tires for this ride  ( is there a way to make tires a tax deduction?) or do I pay the MAN and hope for another one ?

I figure if 12 say they are going it's going to be down to about 4 to 6 by the time it gets here,, hope I'm proved wrong . So I'm going to think on it and wear out this set of tires .

Is there a set date you need a head count?

No, you can show up that morning if you like, or whatever you want.  It's nice knowing people are interested, but not a requirement to sign up early.

I'm thinking hard about this one.  I'll def have to drop in a 18t on the front sprocket as I don't think I could tolerate 1k miles of 5k rpms.  But ya I can get about 130 or so on a tank before reserve pretty safe at the moment.  Sounds like a great time.

Put me down as tentatively in too. Fox (icecold above) and I talked about doing something similar to this last summer but never could get the dates to work.
I'll never be old enough to ride a sportbike responsibly...

I've been wanting to do an Iron Butt to Key West for a few years now. I don't know if that time will work, but go ahead and put me on the list.

I have added some Ride Briefing notes in the first post.  Please take a read through them.

Add me to the list, looks like fun and I enjoy Key West highway. I will be on the Ten so fuel range around 200 plus.

Excellent.  I also added some details about Friday, after we depart Key Largo headed back north.

I went to the value jet memorial via airboat. Neat stop you picked there.
