Mark and Tito

You guys have me getting excited about the trip and I'm not even going. Have a great time.

Tito is possible to smell the roses on one wheel while doing the ton?

Tito, have a good, safe trip to Nova Scotia. Look me up when you come back through Maine.

I spent the weekend doing trip prep. Changed the oil and adjusted the chain on the V-Strom on Saturday, finished up a couple of minor projects, then started packing on Sunday. My waterproof duffel is fucking huge -- I may actually need to bring more clothes than originally planned just to keep it from being too floppy due to being half-empty.

Finishing up a big project at work this week, got a few final odds and ends to finish packing, then Friday morning we're off.

I can't wait to be on the road.

Paul!

I can do the TON on the Vstrom easily but no wheelies. Yes I will smell the roses and the fresh ocean air.

Ripping some back roads!

Ton Up!

Have a safe trip guys and take plenty of pics. I'm hoping to do Nova Scotia next year on my Bonnie!

edbot, Nepatroits9 and I are planning a trip for next year. rbcathlos proposed it and got the ball rolling, He has family duty preventing him from going. Drop me an email if you interested, that goes for any others that might want to go.

I wouldn't say that and don't count me out. If your planning a trip on the cheap, I may be able to swing it.

Tito and Mark,
I'm looking forward to reading about your travels.

Clothes are packed, gear picked out, inside of helmet freshened, and my new SIDI waterproof boots came in yesterday. Adjusting my right mirror, chain and air pressure today. Going over bike this morning.

Always wondered what it would be like to go on a big trip with a large group, 20 or more bikes.

I wonder!

I'm skipping the July 4th fireworks in Burlington tonight (yes, I know it's only the 3rd -- Burlington has them a day early so as not to conflict with all the surrounding small towns). Going to head home after work and finish packing, pull the last odds and ends together, and practice loading up the bike.

Can't wait to get going tomorrow morning!

Tito, If I would have known this time last year I could have planned on the trip. Please let us ride with you through your posts and pictures..

Spiderman will be there in Spirit.

You are always there Spiderman! I will TON UP frequently in your behalf! I am glad I met you in person and I am also glad you did not jump up on the roof and Kicked my Ass! LOL :-)

Bag's packed, I'm about to go load up the bike, and I'll be heading out in about half an hour. Have a great weekend, everyone. See you in 10 days!
