Back over the top

It’s nearly 9:00pm on Thursday 29/6 – I am currently in a trailer park at Caldwell in Idaho. I am only about 50klms from Ontario which is just over the border in Oregon. I have decided that I will do my blogs as the last thing of the day so I keep up and also […]

Radio Active

After being ripped off for the cost of a Motel Room I thought the saving grace was at least I would have a decent breakfast. Wrong Again. I end up having toast and jam because the cooked food was atrocious. There was something that looked like porridge but smelt like a dead cat. I also […]

Wind, rain, hail

Reluctantly I pack up my gear to leave Lander. The town was much better than expected and had been a great pit stop. I went down to the café where I had lunch the day before and wanted to have the usual bacon eggs – no can do but they could do a bacon/egg burrito. […]

Hot, Dam Hot

Well it was time to leave Carl and Suzi in Vegas and head to the Grand Canyon. I had such a fantastic time with these guys that I could have easily stayed longer! Hopefully I will catch up with them at Sturgis as they both love an adventure. Now my stay in Vegas coincided with […]

Vegas

Arrived in Vegas and got sorted at my Airbnb that was hosted by Carl and Suzi – Carl is a producer and worked years for Paramount and Warner Bros. His main gig was being paid to live in Paris and do 30 sec ‘grabs’ working for Entertainment Tonight. He would catch up with the stars […]

Gone Bush

So the day finally arrived and I loaded Fred up and got going. Thank god for the Garmin GPS and the helmet blue tooth. I think I would still be on one of the freeways going around in circles otherwise. The freeway is about 7 lanes wide and the amount of traffic flowing is incredible. […]

Reunited

So it’s game day – time to go and get Fred and bust him out. Day started off well. Up early and got packed up. Left the house and walked for about 10 mins to get on the right road for a bus that ran south. I had booked my first AirBnb again given it […]
