Long trips on your SS?

I would like to do an Iron butt ride from Homestead FL to Mackinaw Island MI. Better than 1500 miles in 24 hours. Think the IBA will endorse the ride if the motorcycle has three wheels? Next ride after that is one I will call 5 Coasts 4 Warriors. A charity ride from NYC to Seattle to Brunswick NCOS to Santa Monica CA to Jacksonville FL. Over 12,000 miles to raise money for a military charity. Who is in?
Two things:
The preferred spelling is Mackinac (spelled with a "c") Island but pronounced Mackinaw.
No motorized vehicles are allowed on the island.

The city you take the ferry boat service to the island is Mackinaw
City (spelled with a "w") or after crossing the big bridge (a fantastic ride all by itself)...St Ignace. St Ignace hosts a terrific and huge annual car show every year. This is the 40th year. It will be the weekend of 6/25-27 2015. It is not to be missed and there should be many SS's there this year. A perfect time to make that road trip from Homestead.

The island is an excellent destination. A place you will never forget.
Just Do It!
