Hot off the 396mile Scooter TT, Ernie Vigil and Nick Brocha along with 3 friends tackle an Iron Butt Association challenge, Border to Border Insanity. The task at hand was simple, cross over into Mexico, and in 24 hours or less cross into Canada some 1,400+ miles away. Due to scheduling conflicts Nick and Ernie were unable to start this journey from California. Instead Ernie started from Albuquerque, NM and picked up Nick at his start point, Las Vegas. So what happens when two professional freestyle riders travel over 2,358 miles without sleep or rest? Follow them as they lose their minds on a set of Triumphs to find out.

I think someone on this board linked to your ride already,  or was it some other board?  
Anyways congrats on the adventure.

Hope you check out the rest of the forum, and if you value your sanity, stay out of the politics threads.
