houston to el paso took me 12hrs, he's ~3hrs west of houston,
el paso to san diego is 700+mi

thats a full 12 hrs on a bike...so roughly 21 hrs.

it's 2 solid days of riding ... but doable, even without ridiculous amounts of speeding. excessive speeding is against the Iron Butt Association's premise

on a southern route, it's not uncommon to overnight in texas, no matter which coast you started on

he has 50 hrs officially, so until ~7am EST Friday. I think he'll be fine, even if he stops for a couple hrs at a rest stop.
