I Rode for 26 Hours Straight — Kawasaki Concours 14

I set out to ride 1,600 miles in just 26 hours on my Kawasaki Concours 14—no sleep, just fuel stops, quick breaks, and a whole lot of determination. This wasn’t a speed run—it was an endurance test for both rider and machine.

Starting in Missouri, I rode through Tennessee, Mississippi, and Alabama before turning back—chasing miles, battling fatigue, and seeing just how far I could push myself without rest. This is what happens when you combine passion, stubbornness, and a challenge that sounds a little too crazy on paper.

⚙️ Bike: Kawasaki Concours 14

If you’re into motorcycle travel, long-distance challenges, and bad ideas on two and four wheels, you’re in the right place.
