New Year, New info, Same trip!

Happy 2010! It felt like it would never get here, notably since that was the year that I set for this monumental motorcycle trip. Yet, it's finally here.

I won't bore you with all my resolutions, but as far as this trip goes, I've resolved to be far more frequent with the updates. I almost have to if I'm going to get any publicity generated.

So far, things have been a little up and down with this trip. The biggest downer is that it appears that Matt won't be going. I won't go into all the reasons why, but I can say this: I will hold out hope that up until about 6am on Saturday, July 3, Matt will have the ability to change his mind. Actually, he can change his mind past that date and time, but he'll have to catch up to me, since I'll have already started.

So....I'm doing my planning as if I'm going alone. Of course, I'll never actually be alone. I'll have you, dear reader, along with me. Just to remind you, the whole point about this blog is that you'll be able to live vicariously through me, see the things I'm seeing, and experience the road as I'm experiencing it. Some of it will be in real time, (quick blog updates via mobile) and some of it will be at the end of each day's riding. You can have dinner with me as I log the latest details of the day.

So you'll see much more frequent, much more 'magazine-style' updates (quick and catchy) and hopefully interesting content. Remember, you can control this. If you have ideas or questions, then be sure to feedback or comment and I'll be most happy to respond.

  2. Indeed. Trying to figure out all the tech details on video each day (or multiple times per day) and upload them easily. New netbook will make it easier!
    I think we'll call it the "Cheeze-Cam" since that's more appropriate for me!
