T minus 1 ...

Revelate Terrapin bags arrived yesterday (Friday), they are terrific, as good or better than expected, and easily hold a 13L drybag as needed.

Front holsters almost done as well, they will roll up around a 13L drybag held between the dropbars on our bikes.

Decided we needed/wanted frame bags yesterday, so we made good progress on those, photos to come, with descriptions of how we made them as well as the front holsters.

Jodee's husband Geoff has been composing a quick video introducing the trip, we previewed that at our sending off party, that video will get posted soon.

Tomorrow we will actually start our ride a day early (!) with a dip in the Atlantic side at Castle Island Beach in South Boston, then heading northwest through Cambridge to Lincoln MA.   Then we must finish everything up for our first fully loaded ride on Monday!
