Well we are all set. Have packed the bike and know where every thing is going to be situated, we have a little room left over in the top box and tank bag for souvenirs -Yeah right. The sleeping bags are the real pain i guess because they are good ones they are a bit thick and bulky. Kym did buy a water proof bag but they are to big for it. So they will get strapped to the top box in a cheap carry bag with a rubbish bag as a liner.
The pannier's have worked out to 9.5 kg each and should not be over 10 kg each so weight will not be an issue but wind will always be an issue but not like it was on the BMW i hope, at least i have time on my side we will not be riding in bad weather at all, I expect we will get caught out at some point but we will head for shelter ASAP.
Delayed by a day. We had a nephew's 21st and had to go to that, but just as well we are ready to go first thing in the morning i think we have it really sorted, we will have to give Paeroa a miss this year and head south to Wanganui, because we won't want to be getting to Wellington too late on Monday. We might go to the national museum ' Te Papa ' or take a tour of Parliament there is actually a lot to do in Wellington. well thats all for now
