Old 40 & Hwy 20 aren't bad alternitives either. There's several back roads you can take & 50  & 88 are in good shape. I was up in Carson City for the AMA Women's Conference a few weeks ago & there was a big message board for Mt. Rose (431) Motorcycles not advised.,  I've heard differently but proceed with caution. Anyone with a Garmin I'm happy to send ya a map. I'm Google illiterate. Syd aka Fishy  less

  Distance per day is a state of mind.

  I recently made the trip from Crossett, AR to Sturgis, KY. I had to make a stop in West Little Rock, AR. This meant extra miles.

I had to make a stop in West Little Rock, AR. This meant extra miles. I was nervous as I was traveling with a brand new Goldwing, and I was straddling a Yamaha FZ6. At the end of the day, we'd traveled 564 miles to get to Sturgis, KY. That may be common place for many of you, but for me this was my longest in a day. Distance between stops really is a state of mind. Sure, I got hot, my butt was smarting some, and once my hip hurt down to my knee. The longest jaunt between stops was 157.3 miles. The point is that with God's grace, taking alleve before we left, and my motocross padded underpants, I made it :-) Oh! I'd been over 400 on this bike once, and knew I'd make it one way or another. I turned over 30,000 on the odometer on this trip. I probably won't get much out of a budget priced bike that resembles a sport bike with over 30k on it huh? lol Now, I can't wait for the Yamaha FJR next Spring, or...    less
