Wild Ass Seat Cushions Helps Make 4 World Motorcycle Distance Records

BRAINERD, MN – June 10, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Patrick Cornell known as “Vroom Old Man” in social media just finished riding his 2025 Indian Pursuit motorcycle over 200,000 miles in one year. That is more than 8 times around the Earth at the equator. What made it possible for Patrick and his motorcycle nicknamed “Pappy” to ride all those 1000 mile days back-to-back? A reliable motorcycle, exhaustive mechanical preparation, unequivocal attention to his body’s need for good nutrition and hydration…and a WildAss seat cushion!

Patrick Cornell, long distance rider (LDR) and WildAss seat cushion founder Craig Johnson celebrate the four long-distance riding records (to be certified) achieved on “Pappy” the Indian Pursuit motorcycle.

When Patrick first bought his Wild Ass seat cushion a year ago at the full retail price, he stated to brand owner Craig Johnson, “If it doesn’t work, you’re getting this sucker back!” A year later after nearly riding more than Artemis II travelled to the Moon, Patrick rolled into the Finish Line Party at Bert’s Black Pearl Indian & Triumph in Fort Myers, Florida stating, “This cushion does everything you said it would do.”

“Pappy” the motorcycle is fully equipped with navigation gear, fuel cells, communication/audio technology, auxiliary lighting…and a WildAss “Smart Classic” model cushion.

“That’s one helluva testimonial for an aftermarket product like ours,” says Craig Johnson, founder of WildAss seat cushions. “I am so proud to have had a customer like Patrick Cornell and his motorcycle Pappy. We are all hoping Guinness awards him the 4 certified records he is due–Longest Continuous Motorcycle Ride in One Country, Most Days on a Motorcycle Averaging 1000 Miles, the Most Consecutive 1000 Mile Days on a Motorcycle, the Most Miles Ridden on a Motorcycle in One Year Awards.

The 2025 Indian Pursuit equipped with the new 112 c.i. PowerPlus v-twin motor travelled the full distance of 200,000 miles with minimal issues.

The engineered technology exclusive to Wild Ass provides superior cushioning, cooling and breathability. It is unlike what the less expensive competitors and primary seat manufacturers use…and it really makes a difference on those long rides. Patrick just proved it. Congratulations!
