First Ever Iron Butt Los Angeles Ride

by Steve
Monday, November 20, 2006

The first ever Los Angeles Saddle Sore 1000 ride was completed over this past weekend.

11 riders rode along the freeways of Los Angeles, enduring 1,021 miles of congested slab, weaving in and out of trucks, crazy drivers, lane splitting, and bumper-to-bumper traffic, all within 19 hours.

The ride dubbed, "17 Laps of Hell A" went without incident, no accidents, and no traffic tickets. It was 17 trips around a loop that comprised of the 210, 118, 5, 107, 110, 101 and 405 freeways.

The bikes ridden were...

  • Honda GL1800 (2)

  • Suzuki DL1000 (1)

  • BMW K1200LT (2)

  • Yamaha FJR1300 (6)
Next up is a Saddle Sore 1000 within San Francisco!
