As you may recall, back in August, seven riders and myself completed an Iron Butt ride. One thousand miles (and change) in 24 hours (19, to be exact).
As a member of STAR Touring and Riding, that ride also allowed me, and three other STAR friends, to apply for the STAR IRONAZZ award. I completed our paperwork, submitted it to STAR, along with three, $100 donations to STAR Family Foundation and this showed up in the mail.
A rocker, pin, and patch.
Frankly, I haven’t seen the patch on many STAR vests, but this one will get a preferential spot on mine.
I’d love to do another Iron Butt/IRONAZZ ride in the near future. Perhaps 1,500 miles in 24 hours or a tour around the Great Lakes in 50 hours. And, do it for a charity, too. The Iron Butt/IRONAZZ ride raised $2,000US for a local charity.
I like “extreme motorcycling.”
