Fun With Motorcycles, Statistics, and the GPS:

We had a GPS with us the whole tour, and here are some output from that GPS: I drove 2,637 km (1,639 miles) at an average of 36 km/hour (22 miles/hour). My maximum speed was 166 km/hour (103 mph) which was on the autobahn in Germany. Here is a ZIP file with my GPS track in various formats. Here is a graph of my altitude during this trip:
