100 / 100 / 100 / 100 Ride

Sounds fair. How are we determining age of motorcycles, model year, or year of manufacture?

I'll bite Joe... where did you find a 1960 KZ900?

For those who are short on years / bike age , Im sure some of us can let them have a few to make them legit.. LOL

I’ll donate to that....

Ghostdive... how about saying you completed the 100 miles on a bike with a 19” front plus an 18” rear tire. That could add 37 to your bike+rider=63+37=100 :whistle:

I've got 17 I can donate. Somebody take my age years please! I wouldn't mind feeling like 53 again!

Just lying about my age, LOL. So needed to fudge the year of the bike a little (lot!) Unfortunately, you already know the model year. :laugh:

Did a "practice" run today, in case the weather report is correct for Saturday. It was 17c (63f) and sunny today, whereas it's supposed to be 8c (46f) and rainy on Saturday. Can we fudge it to the 96th day of the year? Anyway, I did 162.8 kms (101.2 miles) in 97 minutes, Windermere to Spillimacheen to Fairmont Hot Springs to Windermere. The bike is a '77, built in Feb/77 and I'm 63. I followed an RCMP car all the way to Spilli, so no winding it out on that leg, but managed to hit 171 kph (106.25 mph) on the way home. I wanted to cover any speedo error. I saw the perfect picture of the Buggaboo Range, but didn't stop to get it. If I repeat the run on Friday or Saturday, I'll stop for the shot and add it to this post.

Welp, I failed.

86, 100, 90.

Got chased home by rain.

Well done Scott!

I did my ride a few days ago.  I rode from Chase to the high lookout over Kamloops Lake, near Savona.  Total distance was 114 miles.  I exceeded 100 kph several times but did not come near 100 mph.

 

Looks like you've been having bluebird days, too. It's changed today for the worse. Your bike looks fantastic, by the way!

I managed to make the same run today and since I wasn't on a time line, I stopped to get the shot. Bugaboo Range in the back, Columbia River in the front.
