Coast to Coast in Under 50 HoursThis is to Certify that in November of 2008, Tim Masterson rode a BMW R1200GS Adventure from the Atlantic Ocean in Jacksonville Beach, Florida to the Pacific Ocean in Ocean Beach, California in less than 50 hours to qualify for the Iron Butt Association's elite 50cc Quest certification.
This 2,368 mile test was conducted under very strict guidelines set forth by the Iron Butt Association. Only a handful of riders from around the world have managed to solve the equation of time and distance to complete the 50cc Quest.
