First Update

So..... first Bike log.

Bad news. So final preparations for the trip down the coast. We are at Carters house doing a final check on all our gear when from the other room, I hear Dave quite calmly proclaim that he needs to go to the hospital, with no hardcore ugency in his voice i thought it was joke till i walked in and saw this:

minus the paramedic...

the night progessed to this:



THen to this after an hour of sewing up arteries and cleaning it...




So, sadly i will be riding for the most part by myself. Dave goes in for surgery to fix the tendons that were cut(x2) on wednesday. I will leave on friday a little ways down the coast.

Pretty epic first update i'd say.
