Me April 13th in Alberta
The bike will look a lot muckier after the Dempster I can assure you! Well the last few days have been pretty busy i must say. During the "Planning" stages for the trip I have encountered a new friend in the form of Cody at blacklineGPS.com. Basically we met on the side of the road near Cochrane Alberta, one thing led to another and he's kindly offered to fit a new GPS tracking device to the bike that wil come with a link so you'll be able to track me in real-time. Huge thanks Cody and I'll be listing you guys as a sponsor of the trip for sure.
In the meantime i have also fitted the Pelican 1500 case to the back of the GS using Happy trail puck mounts. That was a piece of cake so I hope my handywork is up to scratch or i'll be looking for a new topbox soon!
I've also had some professional photos done by Craig douce at the rock Mountain Outlook Newspaper. Thanks Craig. I'll try to post it up here on this site if I can!
May 4th is a date to remember. I'll be doing a radio chat with tom Lowdermilk on Side Stand Up, the world's only radio motorcycle show. you can find
A pelican case for a topbox
Nice low profile....I don't need anything bigger. it at www.sidestandup.com if you're interested.
Also, my good friend and RTW motorcyclist Ian Coates left us last week to continue his journey into Russia. He's now in Vladivostok awaiting the arrival of his bike. It should be with him around April 21st if all goes well.
Ian, we miss you but also realise that you have many more miles ahead of you yet. May you be fortunate the whole way buddy.
More to follow in a few days!
