What a great ride!
It was 38F when I left… don’t worry – I layered :) Packing the bike took around 20 minutes… I really didn’t want things falling off.
Its 42F, cloudless sky… good day for a ride!
If all goes well, I’ll be in Rockland, ME tonight – staying at a fantastic (so I’m told) B&B. – The Captain Lindsey House Inn – http://www.lindseyhouse.com/. After last night’s sleep (in an unnamed hotel…), I’ll be looking forward to this:
Well… here we go.
The pic is basically what needs to get strapped onto the bike tomorrow morning… I maxed out the rear suspension – it will probably need it :)
Whenever you plan a big trip, it seems work gets in the way… lol…
That’s how it is today.
With six days of travel on the bike looming ahead, one asks a number of questions…
Will the bike make it? (it IS an ’84 after all)
Getting ready for trip like this takes a fair bit of planning…
Got the flickr feed ready – public page is http://www.flickr.com/photos/rodsiphonepics/ – I’ll be posting pics on the blog as much as possible.
Mapping out a trip of this distance (over 1300 miles) takes some planning. I LOVE google maps :)
