So after being awake for some 27 hours, I find out my trip to Ft. Campbell for PRK has been cancelled. The reason? Our Dr. PCS’d to Hawaii. That, is nothing short of amazing. Anyway, I had essentially cancelled my mega-ride this summer, on the premise that I probably wouldn’t be able to see well enough to safely ride cross country. Now that no one will be zapping my eyeballs with lasers, the ride is on. I’m going to go ahead and order my GPS along w/ mapping software to get real routes, along with a taller windscreen for added comfort.

Maybe while I’m home the motorcycle riding engineers I like to call my family can cook up some plans for removeable hard luggage for my Suzuki. It doesn’t have to look great – just fit, and be watertight.
