No Hand Man, motorcyclist attempting hands-free 525 mile ride

[hemibee]

Phil Comar has a bit of a double life. The 63-year-old Adrian, Mich., man works as a motorcycle safety trainer, teaching proper techniques to new riders. But for the past 20 years, Comar has been putting extra danger into his Harley rides by training himself to steer without using his hands. This weekend, he'll attempt to beat his own world record for charity by riding 525 miles hands free, without stopping. That's one way to keep from being distracted.​

525 miles without stopping??
He must have a bladder of iron - or a wet crotch

I'm betting on the wet crotch.

Seems 'armless enough.

Seems nuts honestly but hope he makes it.

Does that still qualify as being an iron but rather an iron ............ oh forget it

 

[CarlS]

Whatever it takes.

I can't even imagine sitting for 500+ miles and not getting off for a butt rest.
Even in the comfortable seat of my Subaru, on a road trip, I have to get out and stretch every couple of hundred miles.
Oh well, it takes all kinds to make a world.
Good luck to him.

Rocky, I take two to six 600 mile trips in a day each year. I stop about every two hours to refuel, rest my butt, hydrate and cool down.
