My mind is a haze
The heat and droning and ugly ass Arizona has us beat up and tooooo tired to post exacts on the trip so here are some pics... Ill talk about thetrip when I gain my sanity back after its all done.. so just check this for the pictures for now :)
Texas!
Well in better spirits now. It seems all those energy things we drank put us in a bad mood. Well we are in Van Horn TX now and should arrive in San Antonio on Saturday.
So some where in NM there is a gas station that has this thing called "the thing" and that thing is a mummy with a baby mummy they found. The Ride today was great though good weather most of the way. El Paso was also bigger than I expected much bigger actually. Also saw Juarez and that place looks reallll bad all shanty town like.
Well that is it for now going to go to bed.

Almost Here!
The beginning of the trip is just around the corner. It will be nothing short of amazing. Getting to see all the different terrain and people and the new and different experiences that come along with this trip. I am also excited to be doing this trip on the BMW. I really got the perfect bike for it. The BMW road side assistance is great. They even overnighted maps of all the places we will be riding. For free too! Just a great benefit for owning a great bike.
There is something about having all your essentials on a motorcycle and just riding to far places. The whole camping thing is also a plus. It's kinda like the whole cowboy riding across america deal but instead of a horse you have a bike.
I will try to update this as much as possible. To make it feel like you are riding along with. And there will be plenty of pictures to accompany the ride report :)
here is the trail we have so far for the whole trip

I need to figure out how to get a job that enables me to ride the world and also help the world too like this guy did.
