What is the point?

Unless there's a complete nutter thats done all of them, then there's no point in trying to compare, only the riders know what its like and i am for one not that particular mentalist....find the riders who's done them all and ask them not us. Maybe have a get together and change riders to different events.....like wife-swap for extreme motorcyclists.
