Default Should I do this?

Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge 2010

I'm definintely thinking about this. I want to do something bizarre. I want to do something wild. This is a year away....It is a $1000 investment so I am pretty sure I can swing it and pick up some sponsors as well.

What are your opinions? The ultimate iron butt challenge? Or just some crackpot scheme to get $1,000 from motorcycle riders?

why pay someone else for you to do your own ride?

just do it on your own and invest the $1000 on yourself.

There's a $500,000 pot if you make it there first. I have thought about it...They limit the entrants to only 1000. EVERYONE must have to ride a Harley, so you KNOW some people won't finish and some people will break down and need some time.

harleys only huh.

and it would be nice if the $1k buy-in included more than just a map and checkpoints. maybe a hotel or two stay and/or some other things.

seems like something i would do if i had the time/money/and a harley. let us know what you decide.
