In Vancouver
Well well well
I made it to Seattle.
I found a 2003 T100 Bonnie in Renton just outside of Seattle.
I spent the last month getting all my gear together and the bike equiped.
Its not the usual set up.
I'm planning on strapping a travel rucksack (you can pack away the shoulder straps) onto the back of my seat, like a holdall. Then a rack to strap down my sleeping bag/tent/fuel.
I originally ordered the engine bars and rack from newbonneville.com but they have a massive and uncertain delay on the Renntec products. I was tripping up to Vancouver, to try and get up to Whistler snowboarding, and found some Renntec gear on the shelf so I've just have it fitted. Nice one.
I hope to continue tasting the rockandroll life style of the West Coast but hopefully find the sun pretty soon, the -8C is even colder with the wind chill. And when your blood rushed back into your fingers that really does burn like a mother...
So anyhow I hope to get down to Mexico by the New Year.
Take it easy,
.....my internet cafe minutes are running low..........
