We're here!

Arrived safely into Kitty Hawk yesterday. It feels like a long way from Hawaii and California, where we started driving the van on Aug. 28th. The van ran great! Loved my AirHawk seats in the van. Shame lsss plug, YES.. but these seat covers made for a very nice ride. Can't wait to try the one on my bike!

Pretty exciting night last night watching my fellow riders and their crews pull in. Some interesting bikes and the people... well, they are always interesting! Met the couple from Germany who are riding. Very nice people. They may have issues with gas, since they have very small gas tanks, but they don't seem too worried about it.

Effie got her photos taken by Mike Lichter in his studio here in the hotel too. She smiled pretty! I found my camera last night and will take lots of photos today.

Gonna fire her up today and take her for a little spin.

Thanks again to all my sponsors and everyone who has been sending me good luck messages. I'll need it!
