Little upgrade my bike. I feel that I need to get a new traveling companion. Big thanks to everyone who helped me my trip with terra.
I am not able to drive yet. Bike registration still in progress. In Finland, the registration of the new model can take up to two weeks. On the other hand I get the bike home until Monday. Perhaps i`m patient enough to wait for another couple of days
Eastern Oregon / Washington. Horse Heaven Hills overlooking the Columbia. It was cold and windy, 28 °F My hands were about frozen after climbing the gravel switchback to get here, but what a view!
Just returned from a 350klm loop, in a group of serious road riders, the TR most impressive, even with a 21inch front wheel & Mitas E10 tyre
We're getting closer to departure... Should be around end of April, start of May. We'll be making a small change to the planned route on the map below as we could not get confirmation that foreigners are allowed to cross from Ukraine into Crimea. So we'll be taking the Balkans route through Bosnia, Serbia and Bulgaria to Turkey to get to Georgia and Armenia and into Iran.
Me neither, I can't wait to get going You can follow us on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/destinationworld.be/ Or check out our blog site: http://destinationworld.be (some of our other trips are on there as well)
My F800GS friend and I decided to make this the summer we're going to ride to Alaska and I've been working on a plan for a 20+ day ride via Vancouver Island, Stewart-Cassier Highway, swimming in the Arctic Ocean at Prudhoe Bay, touch the Northwest Territories, and then back through Banff and Montana. Between here and ADVRider.com it's funny how these ride ideas tend to grow with addition of side trips. It might have to be a 27 day trip to do it right. Between the Canuckian on a DRZ-450 that camped out for almost 3 months straight to the son with a father on a Terra I'm getting many ideas of things to see and do along the way. Thinking about a July 2nd launch time to enter Canada....on Canada Day naturally. Ordered a radiator guard and pondering headlight grill options.
I'm headed to Mexico next month on the Terra so I went on a shakedown ride today in the Texas hill country to ensure everything is working right. Here's how she looks with all the luggage mounted.
Very nice, lovely roads, beautiful scenery and good 'information tips' about the different areas. I didn't mind the music, but somehow I prefer the sound of the bike
