Selfie 1,000 - Timothy TN to Masterson TX

Timothy is an unincorporated community in Overton County, at the eastern edge of Tennessee.  Mastersonis an unincorporated community in southern Moore County, in the Texas Panhandle, just north of Amarillo.

What a great opportunity for an Iron Butt Association "Selfie" SaddleSore 1,000!  Ride over 1,000 miles, under 24 hours from Timothy to Masterson.  The actual milage is almost 1,100 miles, since I'm starting the Selfie 1K from Celina TN, just northeast of Timothy and in Dumas TX, just north of Masterson.  Neither Timothy nor Masterson have DBR opportunities.

I will be riding the Selfie 1K while fasting.  No stopping to eat nor snacking along the way.  Just coffee in the morning and drinking water. For the last 3 years I have been OMAD, eating only One Meal A Day, especially when riding.  Far more efficient than dealing with food driven behaviors while riding.  I normally fast each weekend, Saturday to Monday, for 48 hours. Since I am riding all day Saturday, I started my 48 hour fast on Friday. Had a great tasting pre-ride meal at the Mexican eatery across the street from my hotel in Celina.  Veggie fajitas with a side of bean burritos, chips and salsa, yummy!
