, WI | Victory memories and accomplishments. Each one has a story. I don't really wear it. Just a good place to save them.

How did you attach the patches, stitching or some kind of adhesive? |

, WI | roundtwig - 2012-02-28 7:30 PM great vest. I'm not one for wearing pins and patches either but thats a good idea. so how many miles are represented on the vest? Thank you! This is my Victory vest. Everything on this vest (except the helicopter ride ) was completed on a Victory. Over 77,000 miles on 3 Victory's. All 50 states. 11 Iron Butt certifications and 23,823 of the miles ridden "on the clock" during IBA rides. I'm hoping to add a few more before I retire from the timed rides. |

, WI | One more for the vest. This was accomplished during the 49 state ride in 2010 on a Kingpin. I finally took the time to get it certified. Doing the paperwork was almost as challenging as the ride. It was worth it.

Best of luck on your upcoming adventure ride.Thank you! I can't wait to try the ride to Alaska!! Mike Dapper is a big fan of the Iron Butt rides. He has done two, including one on a High Ball! Mike also was able to locate a Victory in Hawaii so that I could ride a Victory in all 50 states. I had sent an email to the Victory Mail Bag and said I was going to ride a Victory in 49 states and I would like to make it 50. My favorite part is he believed I was going to do it, sometimes more than me. |

That's why I've never sent my stuff in for any rides.
