Africa

Radioman,
If you plan on coming to the western part of Africa, I am in Accra, Ghana, come by the embassy and tell them you want to go to the Marine House. First beer will be on me.

Somewhere in all of the posts I missed what you´ve done with the bike you used in South America?
And what bike do you plan to use in India?

A couple of years ago two Swedish guys bought 2 Royal Einfield Indias and drove them home to Sweden, hows that for an idea?

Marks trip home would be a little damp.

It might start kind of like this:



But, it probably wouldn't end well.

T-Minus 13 days to departure to India

My head is swimming with all the things to wrap up before I fly to India on May 15th!

Have lots of things to handle before I go, besides repacking my clothes from DC, Bikes, And then fine tune my packing for India. It will be a "Pack as Light as possible Moment".

Will capture some pictures of the final gear. Checking in with a few ADV riders and getting input as we i write.

I am fairly organized, but with all my running around have been a bit scattered and behind in this. More Adventure this way

MoBill forwarded his "list" to me. ......................... Someone is organized

I stole that list from Anders Green...and added to it....needs some De-Andersification, I don't even know what some of those cards he's mentioning are. LOVE you anders, your list is great. I AM organized...I just steal ideas from peeeples smarter than me.


AND how do you go ANYWHERE without TP and wipes on your checklist Make sure you add that. I won't take all that stuff.....most of it in blue stays home.

And my CSM just brought me a parting gift...well loan.



CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!
