8 hours later, 4 o'clock, at my uncle's place in Los Gatos.

happy to be inside and warm. Boy it was windy outside.
the bike rode surprisingly well despite all the weight I had in the back - see pics previous post. Although far from doing a 50 mpg, this KLR definitely winning my heart. ^^

Tomorrow will go back to the Motoshop in South San Francisco to work on the weight issue - try to figure out a way to cut down the ammo can for my laptop - and finish up the bike for the real adventure coming up!
