It's real...

18 Days and counting...

The bikes are all at Keith's house awaiting the truck to pick them up. This is the last big thing... getting the bikes loaded up. Once that's done and they're on their way, it's just a complete waiting game. I can't change my mind about which bike to take and just have to wait out the next 2 1/2 weeks without going completely insane. There's a challenge.

The final roll call of bikes is:
My Street Glide
Keith's FJR1300 (gen-2)
Adrian's FJR1300 (gen-2)
Wayne's FZ-1 (gen-1)
Brian's VFR
Bob's FJR1300 (gen-1)

On the upside, I'm definitely not the only one who had a hard time packing up. Not only did everyone have to contend with weight and space issues, but no one wanted to carry their helmet and riding gear on the plane. So we each had to dedicated at least one full storage box to the daily-use gear. That's kind of a pain, but on the upside, when we're on the road, we're each guaranteed to have a little open space for daily-use items (snack bars, bottled water, bought t-shirts, etc.).

So... it's real. It's on. It's happening. Wow.
