Just under 1200 miles (Ferrol, Spain -> Santiago -> Calais) in about 21 hours. In a car with cruise control and two drivers, no sleep, lots of Red Bull and very little time stationary.
Much more fatiguing on a bike, fighting windblast, lot more strain on shoulders and arms, constantly. Plus, you had 2 drivers. Not comparable to what Solorider is thinking of. Why would you want to, if not a matter of life or death (which it may well become)?
