An internet chum of mine just went on a rather amazing 24hr trip. He attempted a 1,000 mile trip in 24 hours. On a scooter.

Image by sigma. via FlickrIt doesn't matter how old you are or how fit you think you are, riding a
scooter for 24 hours (or anything close to that long) is physically
demanding. The word 'grueling' comes to mind now that I'm on the other
side of it.
A good chunk of my ride took me through two of the more inhospitable
sections of desert in the world (the Negev and Arava). Twice!
'Nuff said!
Read more about it and maybe donate to his cause. I know I will...
