Again, folks, you take my initial map much, much too literally. This is a concept. If you know me, I use a map to get ideas on where to go, not necessarily on the how to get there. Any improvisation before during or after is always welcome in my book. don't know about you folks, but if you always continue to stay within the lines you will find you will find yourself on some very boring motorcycle trips. I am a bit more of the adventurer in that I use a map like this to point me towards a goal and then try to be as free flowing about it as possible as long as I can reach my goal in the time i have. Heck, even if i don't reach the end goal but have a blast along the way is more what i am about. So, relax, have a drink and we can talk about how things will actually work as time moves along. Heck, haven't even set a date to do this thing if it is gonna happen at all. Just kicking around ideas that i might be able to do this year. Don't think i will have time for the arctic circle trip this year so just kicking some tires, so to speak.
