SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 29th, 2012
The Endless Road Tour‘s first major fundraising effort with all proceeds to benefit the National MS Society will kick off with nothing less than an attempt at setting a new World Record!
The event is being sponsored by and hosted at National Powersports Distributors’
Annual Fall Open House 9:00 am – 4:00 pm701 Riverview Drive Pembroke, NH. www.nationalpowersports.net
I will attempt to ride a Saddlesore 1000, which is a documented ride of 1000 miles in 24 hours, but I will do so swapping bikes 99 times! I will finish the record attempt at National Powersports’ Fall Open House where riders, fans and supporters are invited to witness and celebrate my hopeful achievement with food, music, give-aways, and special event-only discounts on bikes.
NATIONAL POWERSPORTS WILL ALSO DONATE $100 to MS FOR EVERY BIKE SOLD DURING THE EVENT!
The event takes place Saturday September 29, 2012 from 9:00 am until 4:00 pm. All are welcome. I expect to arrive after 10:00 am, but I must be there before 11:00 am to set the record. Please join me!
If you can’t be there to witness my first world record, you can still support this amazing ride attempt by clicking this link or the logo below. 100% of your donation goes directly to the National MS Society. Please help us reach our goal!
HOW CAN YOU CONTRIBUTE?
1. SPONSOR A RECORD SETTING BIKE! $50
The first 100 individual donors of $50 or more will each become an official sponsor of one of the 100 bikes riden during the record setting attempt, and they will be recognized on the World Record Certificate, as well as on the World Record Sponsor page . A copy of the certificate with their name on it, a personal thank you and Endless Road Tour decal will be sent to bike sponsors after the event!
(The official sponsor designation and certificate is only available to the first 100, and no certificate will be issued in the event of failing to set the record.)
2. SPONSOR A MILE (or more) $10 per mile
Donate a minimum of $10 per mile and receive recognition on longhaulpaul.com’s World Record Sponsor page as a mile sponsor. Mile Sponsors will also receive an Endless Road Tour decal while they last!
Let’s see if we can get the the entire 1000 miles in donations!
3. DONATE ANY AMOUNT! $$ ??
“Every dollar donated here goes directly to the MS Society. This is my first attempt to raise awareness and funds to help others with Multiple Sclerosis and my first world record attempt! This is the kick-off to the Endless Road Tour! With your help, I know we will make it a success!”
Thanks!~Paul

How about that spyder…….
or the Ural with the side car, remember those days!
Why weren’t you a posterboy for Ural?
I want you to feel almost right at home so I suggest the Norge GT 8V.
Paul,
I’m in for sponsoring one of the motors you will ride to your new record. Do you have a list of just what motors you will be riding during your Saddle-sore 1000?
I doubt that I will be able to be there to greet you at the finish but I wish you the best of luck. I hope National Powersports will have someone taking lots of photos and/or video to post online after the event.
Mike
Thank you Mike! Because National Powersports sells so many bikes each week, we can not be sure what the actual 100 bikes will be for the event. As of now, each donor gets a number, and we will assign the bikes as I ride them in random order. However, If everyone goes to National Powersports website at http://www.nationalpowersports.net, you will see some interesting bikes and maybe we can start a thread on what would be the best or worst bike to use for the world record!
Jim, THANK You! You are sponsoring my Home? My wife will love that our mortgage is being looked after while I’m tooling around! Fixed the links!
I am looking into SPOT, hoping for a donated one……..
Paul – quick heads p on the links. The MS logo link goes to an error page. Your text link in the paragraph above the logo does work though. I’ve sponsored a home and will see you at the Open House to congratulate you on your ride 🙂 Will you be running a Spot Tracker so those of us at home can follow along with your progress on Spotwalla?
