One  ( well. two , in fact ) notes before I leave early tomorrow to start
my jurney to the Land of the brave, home of the free:

A BIG thank you to Moen at Indian Part Europe
for all his hel and advise.
He dropped by the workshop last night with this magnificent box of spareparts



with everything from valves to clutch springs,
and the lid had that nifty 'window' with description of every single part.
Thanks Moen ! Without you, my silly adventure wouldn't have ever happened.



Looking forward to seeing you all, and looking forward to visit your beautiful great country.
Please allow this here foreigner to make a humble and heartfelt comment on the current situation and political 'climate'
in the USA;

Shut the f*** up and appreciate what a truly fantastic, free and incredibly beautiful country you all live in
and just f****** get along, and work together on solving the relatively small problems you are dealing with.
You're not in f***** Somalia.
You're blessed !

[Jumping down from soap-box]:

See ya' all soon

Cool Ass Lars,
   Thanks it has been a pleasure having you in the streamliner crew in 2008, hopefully the liner can make Moen as proud as well this year.
  See you soon,
   PM me with a phone number when you land and get settled.

Thanks Rocky.


I'm going shopping for a helmet tomorrow
in Albuquerque.
Don't have the rule-book with me.
Could someone please tell me the 'rating' requirements.
Something about SNELL (?)....something

Thanks.

Thanks Graham !

Don
Thank you very much Don !
I do have the leathers from last year that Bob Bakker gave me ( Thanks Bob !!! )
I'll see if I can buy the rest of the stuff here i Albuquerque
where I am right now, is a semi-shitty motel, after a looooooong trip,
waiting for the shops to open

If I can't find the right stuff I might have to take up your generous offer.
Thanks !

Hey Lars! We'll still be on the lookout for you in San Diego. :-D Safe travels, hope we meet up sometime. Jill
Thanks Jill !
Hope I'll be seeing you
and your brilliant bike
sometime


Lars --- how does the rate of exchange from Euro to dollar affect the trip?
Haven't a clue really
but nothing dramatic.

Danish Kroner to the US Dollar:



We don't have Euros in Denmark. Still the good old 'Kroner' ( = Crowns )
though it's 'tied' to the Euro

...and will it be different when the Market opens on Monday...
Donno.
Forgot my crystal ball at home
