This entry is part 7 of 7 in the series Latin America
Here is a map that allows you to see my progress on the road in real time. The setup isn’t ideal right now. I will be posting this in the right side so you can always see it, but I don’t have the time in between meals, camping and riding, so here is something for now at least.

I finally shove off and hit the road to begin my 8 month journey through Latin America on my motorcycle. I discuss some of the initial problems, my mental state and the over all anxiety and excitement I have.
I rounded up all the gear I think I will need for this trip. I actually fit it all into my two Pellican 1550 cases. More on how I pack everything into such small space later when I have more free time. I will be leaving Monday for Chicago. Once I get on the road I will have more time to reflect and slow things down and write some more here. Until then, I’ll be trying to get the rubber on the road and keep the shiny (or grimy in my KLR’s case) side up.
My departure date for my 8 month Latin America trip has been delayed a couple of days. I have some modifications that need to be made before I leave, and I do an overview of what modifications I have already made.
