Getting closer




The birds will miss me. The team is now four people, I have been declared fit by a 'photo shoot' (colonoscapy and endoscopy) so trial packing is on the agender; just found out kitchen sink will not fit in Wing. Must find softer shoes that will bend, luggage will take 3 x 20 pounds but want to keep it as light as poss., need to pack all I need would like then to have top box empty for the things I forgot or dirty washing etc. We have now decided to take one man tents, sleeping bags and self inflating mattresses in case we cannot find a motel with vacancies, this equipment will have to be waterproofed and strapped to the rear seat. I intend to replace the tyres with new ones but keep the old ones ( they are near new) and refit them when I return, after 20000 Klms I think the new ones will be worn out, the Wing will have full Honda service before I leave and again in Perth. Suddenly the trip is just around the corner, we go to Coffs harbour for the A.G.M. (party) about 5000 of us, then we leave on 29/05/2007 heading South {keep the blue one on the left & the brown one on the right} and ... Be Lucky........ Bandit on the Wing
