I'm off again. Canada/TAT/Mexico and beyond

[garth]

Quitting my job, renting out my house, flying to Nova Scotia on the 12th June.

Bought a bike, almost prepped it, paid for the shipping.

I have booked my flights and a hotel for two nights.

I'm flat out for the next month working on the house, but after that should be able to get an mot on the bike and get out on the dirt.

Bit of route planning.

We ship into Halifax, from there it's roughly a days ride on tarmac to the start of the True North East, details of which can be found here:

At the end of that section, we get a ferry and we can hook onto the Trans Canada Trail, more of which can be found here: https://www.graveltravel.ca/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=80:tcat-forest-page-1&catid=1

We'll branch off at Toronto, to visit some of my friends family or something, head through Niagra Falls and then South through Pennyslvania until we can hook up to the TAT.

Happy to say it just passed it's MOT without any advisories.

Had my first ride on it today, feels like a big 125. No frills.

Not long to go now...!
