Our neighbour! 9 Days to go! MTR SPORTS, the owner Robert kindly donated one set of tires on behalf of ACT-one of the reasons we are riding, to raise awareness for Autism!
We went out for our inaugural ride today but the weather was terrible. The bikes do not have a Gerbing temperature controller or plug yet for our heated gear nor are they equipped with heated grips yet. The grips might be an issue as there was confusion as to whether or not we wanted them…
They are here! But not for long…going a very long ride tomorrow to try and get some mileage on the bikes. They go back to the dealer on Monday for a service, the rest of the accessories to be installed especially on Cheryl’s bike and the new Heindenau Scout tires to be installed. So far…
Today we pick up the Tiger’s despite the typical Vancouver rain. We get the bikes for the weekend to try and put some KM’s on them and then they go back to the dealer for a “check up”. From what we have been told some accessories have been installed and we have some extra’s that…
13 days….our Jesse luggage is being shipped today! Maybe ready at the border for pick up by Saturday or Monday the latest! Al Jesse made the luggage specifically for this trip! Thanks AL! We will post pics of the beautiful luggage as soon as we can. This stuff is top-notch!
The bikes are assembled and batteries being charged. Just waiting on insurance and for the accessories to all come in. Still many details being finalized and as riders we are so ready to start putting some KM’s on these Tigers!
We sure hope the bikes get out of their boxes and get put together today. When the Tiger’s actually get in our garage I think we will start believing this will happen. Not that we doubt it of course. Just hard to really see the whole picture when you are missing the bikes. WE heard…
Silly test video of me filming us with my Contour HD camera attached to a pole…just having fun!
Inventory done, checked out gear and all looks like it is in working order! We don’t have many weekends off together before we leave so today was a productive day.
Time seems to be flying by us now and we both should and I say should start to really take stock in our inventory. Make sure the camping stove works, sleeping bags don’t smell too badly, tent in once piece, stuff like that. We have been both working a lot and energy is low just…
Hopefully more pictures of the build on Tuesday or Wednesday to be taken by the manager of the dealer…Desi.
This is just a test video using the cameras we are bringing and also showing not only the bike we own now…but some of the wild life that is of interest to us. Most likely will delete this post later but just wanted to see how this works on the BLOG….we also will be using…
2 Crystal White Tiger 800 XC bikes have arrived Western Powersports but will most likely remain crated until early next week due to previous builds for other customers. I want to get down to the dealer and take some pictures of the bikes in their boxes prior to the build. Accessories have arrived as well,…
That is what we have been told that the bikes arrive today at Western Powersports. I would love to get some photos of the bikes coming out of the boxes and the build process. If they come then we can start the real prep from start to end. Crossing our fingers that we get the…
We have been told the bikes are almost here?????
