I am now unemployed! Well, that isn’t entirely true as I am really on an “Unpaid Leave” if you talk to the folks at HR. It is basically like I’m having a baby and taking it on a motorcycle trip to South America. That is what most people use unpaid leave for in the US. I’ve started to put my final schedule together and I’m probably going to leave Friday July 11th or the Saturday the 12th. The main reason for the delay is all the domestic travel I have and all the non-motorcycle trip preperation I did not anticipate.

Bike wise, I’m ready to go except for the minor detail that the bike isn’t actually running right now. Well it is running IFF you push start it because I still have not received a replacement starter relay.

Currently I am on the road in Dallas heading north to Kansas City with my pup INDY!. I’m going to drop him off in KC and family is going to take came of him. This is the first of two trips: Hou -> KC -> Hou (wedding) -> Atlanta (wedding) -> New Orleans (family) -> Houston… THEN I start heading south.
