RTW North to South: Bike Prep Part I

CN - July/August 2017

Two Suzuki DR350's are about to head south this fall! If you followed along for our last trip (www.rtweastwest.blogspot.com), be sure to stay tuned for Part II, (www.rtwnorthsouth.blogspot.com). Ken and I are hitting the road again - this time a north to south trip to the end of the world. Target departure date is towards the end of October. Should reach Ushuaia at the bottom of Argentina sometime in February.

Same as the last trip, we will be starting at Ken and Marybeth's farm in Virginia. Last trip was on the big BMW 1100GS bikes...this time we are going small and lite. Strangely, we ended up with the same model year bikes as the BMW's - me on a '94 and Ken on a '96.

The bikes are staged in the shop and prep work has begun!

Here are some photos while prepping the bikes a couple of weeks ago. Next prep session will be Labor Day Weekend.
