What's the farthest anyone on the forum has driven their gz?

Went on a trip with my gz up to Upper peninsula of Michigan-round trip was approx. 500 mi. The bike was great. Took mostly back roads and state highways. Awesome trip from central Indiana

Lynda rode her GZ a little over 3000 miles during her first road trip. The bike seemed to love the open road. It did highlight the drawbacks of a smaller bike though. Lack of power in headwinds and long gradual inclines.
Her second road trip was not as long but a lot of fun on her Suzuki M-50. Size does matter.

Somewhere around 300-500 miles...I wasn't really counting. It was a trip through the Appalachians - quite fun.

Wish you'd sent me a message. I've been expanding lately and recently had an Interview with the DNR for an educational position at 3 state parks. I could've shown you around...

Going to Alaska from AZ must have made you feel like you were on another planet. Our world is truly awesome.
