310 Days to the Ride
Not much to report today; weather has turned cold so any riding will be done in full leathers to keep warm. This is all good practice. This weekend I hope to be able to make a 300 mile ride with the equipment loaded onto the bike to get some experience riding it fully loaded. With luck it will rain and I'll get the full experience of testing the elements.

Still in the upper 80's low 90's here. Been looking the truck over to see what might need attention between now and then. A new set of tires for sure and probably brakes and shocks. For some reason good brakes are nice to have when touring through the mountains. I've got stories I can tell. Be careful with that extra weight. You need to allow extra stopping distance and on a bike that is tricky.
