Just over two weeks to go before I fly out to start the trip.
Today I delivered the bike to Motofreight for shipment to Bogota. Tim made us a lovely cup of tea, checked the bike, did the paper work and that’s it. All set to fly.

The tracker also has an SOS button that sends my position to the local rescue services wherever I am in the world. It doesn't guarantee I'll get help but at least someone will know where I am.
