I was thinking...I have to fly home two weeks after I get to St Louis. If I booked a one way flight back to NH I could ride back to St Loius. Google maps lists the trip as ~1220 miles and 28 hours avoiding highways. That figures out to average 43.5mph. I'd have 48 hours to make the ride.

I've done 500 mile rides on a Saturday just for fun. No trailer to worry about and lots of riding along the way.
