On the road and it is good to feel the journey has begun
Yesterday was traffic, busses and lorries cars all within inches giving us very little room.
It was a shakedown day, sorting pannier weights and load distribution, getting the feel of a loadef bike. For some just staying on the bike was an.acheivment - one of us came off about 6 times - nothing dented apart from pride, a brokenbar end and some very scrapped legs.
Crossed a couple of big bridges and eventually crossed in the USA. No drama at the border. Into motel and then a chinese and into bed. Everyone survived day 1 some in better humour than others and there was a slight hint of L M F in the air.
Today rain. Lots of rain so in a motel in Bellingham. Less traffic and more trees.
Unfortunately we heard that Gilly's older brother died unexpectedly - so phone calls to & from UK
Dist 73 miles
