Nice shot of Al, frustrated, with his rear wheel off the bike. Looking forward to making my own video in about 6 months.

haha, nice catch Rob! My center stand was fucked up so I just laid the bike on it's side to pull the rear wheel and fix a flat.. It was pretty quick work actually but plenty of people stopped and took pictures of me and my beached whale of a bike.. I think a few of the paparazzi bastards actually offered to help if needed though..
  I'm looking into options to make the bike a bit more off road worthy for 2013.. Mostly taking off some weight but while not spending a ton of money to shave a few ounces.. I like the Pelican cases a lot but I'm contemplating soft cases or going ultra-lite and just using a waterproof duffel strapped to the rear rack along with my "tank" bag and a hydration pack with a little storage capacity. Plan for a discussion about custom soft cases at the pre-New Years Eve camp-n-ride...

That was a great video and it will illicit only one question from any seasoned Roamer. Is it June Yet?

Packing list
I remember seeing a mandatory and suggested packing list but cannot find it anymore. Can someone point me in the right direction?
