24 Days till CHOPOUT

Tell your mama. Midwest weather has finally started to break. We’re getting nights in the 50’s and days in the 80’s. Perfect Cycle/Camp weather. Here’s a little video clip put together from way early in the season when me and RL went out to scout a few possible routes. It was like late April/Early May or something. Temp never broke 55 degrees but it was a great time. CHOPOUT 2010 – SEPTEMBER 18TH. Be there. Bring a friend.

Outside Civilization

Almost 300 miles today. The sun hid behind the clouds keeping the temperature low. Never broke 55 degrees. On the outskirts of civilization, the Tower Cafe serves me the chili and coffee while the waitress tells us stories of her motorcycle and moose experiences. We blast off. Still headed north. 20 miles from the Canadian border without passports gives us good reason to come again. Headed south through the twists and turns along route 1.  Plenty of miles left with no reason to stop in sight. More to come – the chopper blog.
