On the road again -
Just can't wait to get on the road again.
The life I love is making music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been.
Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
On the road again -
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends.
Insisting that the world keep turning our way
And our way
is on the road again.

It's almost time! Good morning, everyone! Happy New Week! Drinking "English Breakfast" tea, and packing tea bags for the trip. Munching on some hardrolls as we pack, tossing out more than we put in. Not much room for two people's clothing and toys on a motorcycle for a week long trip, but it's doable. Throw away the joker from the deck of cards... cut the handles off the toothbrushes...
Actually, I took the trunk off the back of the bike and we'll use a larger travel bag made just for long motorcycle touring. We'll have more than enough room for anything we want to take, so it's not as if we'll be suffering too much. Well get it packed up today, make sure of the fastenings to the bike, and we'll be all set for an early morning departure tomorrow morning. I want to be well passed the cities (Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe) before all the rush-hour traffic and big trucks are on the road. Once we're out of the Kansai area (Osaka Plain) the rest of the week will be mountain riding, exploring the Chugoku Mountains and Chibi Highlands. I like that!
Gotta go finish packing!
