To me it's a bit on the big side but then I have rode a 250 from Edmonton to Kingston.
You are welcome to join us and experience a different riding style.
The route sheets (paper) will be handed out in the morning so you will need a tank bag or 2 1/2 enduro route sheet holder.
An odometer is a necessity but I use a gps program on my phone.
The other option is to follow someone who looks like they know where they are going.

It's the only bike I have, so I understand if it's not the right size of bike for this style of ride.
I have a few tank bagsand am pretty good with paper and the odometer when I'm paying attention. I used to write out all my routes on lined paper using a map book and ruler. I also have a Garmin GPS that I can bring.

I have a problem with seeing a sheet in my tank bag so I have made up a spreadsheet for my iPad
that usually has my route on it in MapsMe.
It is mounted up near the windshield for easy viewing.
I have a route on it for testing on the ride to Enterprise for an event.
A bluetooth device in my tank bag will let me click down to the next line at the end of a section with my left hand.
it's a bodge job but it works until I get a bluetooth programable single key pad for ↓

I would cut back on the decimals a lot as it adds clutter without adding information. What are you using for odometer and what it it's resolution? If odometer only has one number after the decimal, I'd make your sheet only show one number after the decimal (or maybe two to avoid thinking about rounding).
The spreadsheet is a work in progress and reducing the number of decimal points is on the agenda.
I will run ODOMETER on my phone that is also mounted on the handlebars.
It displays full window.
I tried a split window on the iPad but it messed with the bluetooth on the spreadsheet.
My 3D printer is good for bodging things.
Just ran off a mount for my sport cam to fasten it to the bike.
Who thought 2 power points would not be enough on a motorcycle.
Can't get much simpler. Has a stop and start for reset at bottom of screen.

I remember the days when a 250 was an acceptable ride for distances. I used to take my wifes 250 Ninja on group rides of up to 800 km/day - it could hit 160 with a good **** and some flat road, cruise al day at 120. My longest ride was a Virago 250 from Toronto to Kakabeka falls (near Dryden) and back. I rode a TW 200 regularly from Markham to our cottage in Sharbot lake, about 300km each way.
I still get a kick out of riding small bikes -- my smallest is a Yamaha QT50, 50CC 2t that tops out at 75kmh.
