I am getting ready. I am training less than I'd like, but still an adequate amount. I have highlighted my general route. This is, of course, just a general outline. I may diverge to my whims. This will be an adventure after all. What kind of adventure is limited to a completely strict itinerary? Well, certainly not any adventure I am interested in.
The bike still needs some work. I hope to get it tuned up in the next week or so. It needs it. I know my friends and family will feel a little better about my travels knowing my bike is at it's peak. After the tune up I plan to install all the accessories and practice fully loaded.
The car broke down last night. I think it's a blessing in disguise. No excuses. I have to ride more now.
