Alaska - Argentina. Summer 2008

[*Touring Ted*]

Hey all... I originally posted this for 2007 but personal circumstances means that im having to delay this for another year for saving purposes. It may be a blessing in disguise as ill be able to do my full Spanish A-level now before the trip (some disguise though lol)

Well, I want to be leaving anytime after May 2008. Probably flying into Anchorage and heading south at a lesuirly pace taking anything between 6 - 12 months. Nothing is concrete yet so happy to swap and talk ideas through.

Im 26, male, very laid back, friendly, honest and sociable. I have a very long fuse and not really interested in racing and stressing out on the road. Im a qualified motorcycle mechanic and iv been learning Spanish for the last year and should be upto a fairly high level before I go. (God, this sounds like a lonely hearts advert )

Im taking a 2003 XT600E with Tesch 45L boxes & GPS. Im not planning on taking a tent and camping gear at this stage but ill prob take a bivvi bag for the odd night under the stars. I plan to airfreight too. Apart from that, im very flexible.

I know its a fair way off at the moment but I know that time really does fly and you can never have too long to plan and save. I should have about 7-8 K for the trip come leaving time.



By all means get in touch !! Ed
