The Adventure Begins...
Well, last week I began my adventure that I'm calling "Tejas A La Tierra" or "Texas to Tierra del Fuego. Over the next year I'll make my way south from Austin to Tierra del Fuego, the southern most point in this hemisphere and then back. I'm hoping to provide updates with blogs, photos, videos and podcasts of my adventure.
Info about my bike, gear and journey will be chronicled on my website www.theadventurebegins.tv. Please subscribe if you're interested in following along.
I meant to say a few thanks before I left, but things got a little bit hectic. This community and a number of its riders have greatly influenced me in taking this trip and prepping me for this journey.
Tourmeister for managing this great website.
Green Eggs and Ham for taking me on my first ride.
Trailboss for organizing rides and writing manuals on dual sporting in Texas.
The Roll the Bones guys for helping me fix my first flat.
Vinny and Coolhand for pushing my skills out at Big Bend.
Green Eggs and Ham for helping me select a bike for the adventure and providing maintenance advice.
Trailboss for helping me fix my second flat and providing advice on tools and equipment.
Coolhand for great advice on prepping my DR650.
FotoMatt for helping me prep my DR650.
All you guys on the DR650 thread.
And, all you guys that I've ridden with along the way.
I'll be posting updates on my website, ADVRider and possibly on TWT.
Just wanted to say thanks y'all.
You can read the highlights on this website or read the complete story by segments by country on my blog.
