  I am sitting in Jacksonville Beach, FL resting up for a IBA 50CC run starting in the morning.  I should be leaving here about 4:15am and have to be in San Diego, CA in 50 hours or less.  I have wanted to do this ride for a long time and everything has come together this year.  I have added a 3 1/4 gallon aux. tank which gives me a comfortable 300 mile range. 
  I have a program on my Iphone that lets me put waypoints on my facebook page when I want if you want to check it out.  I won't have time to post anything here until I get to SD.  I will post a ride report and some pictures after I get home Friday or Saturday.

Wow!  Shocked  And I was complaining about my Ultimate Low Rider seat on that 2000 IS...

Do they make Ultimate seats for the 50ccer's???

Yikes, good luck Jim, I'll be looking forward to THAT ride report. We got snow going on a bit today! Wish you all the best in weather for your adventure.

I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I arrive at the beach in San Diego at 12:15am this morning.  I got my Pacific Ocean water and officially ended my time at 12:46 our time when I got gas.  I'm still tired and will post a better ride report later.
