Let me start by saying, I have the best wife ever. I had a 12 day trip planned for this summer to ride from Texas to Washington State and the deployment got in the way. So now that I'm home, the wife gave me 2 days to ride (I asked for 6...I'll take 2 and not complain). No need for the saddlebags for 2 days so I just used my tank and tail bags. However, I did not pack rain gear as there was only a 20% chance of rain, which usually means no rain in Texas.
I packed the bike the night before. Just waiting for the sun to rise. I planned out day one of the ride but did not make hotel reservations so I could stop wherever I wanted. The map shows day one. The other pics are me just waiting to leave after our daughter left for school. These pics are from my phone so they are kinda crappy in low light. The camera was already packed in my tank bag.
