Moto as in motorbike and motorcycle. Riding from New York City to San Francisco and blogging about it on the way has been the underlaying motivation to put this site together in the first-place. I'm planning on doing the ride in June 2009 on a Kawasaki KLR650 over the course of 4 weeks. Quick link here for the latest stories.
Such a ride would not be complete without plans to keep a daily blog to be posted herewith. The daily blog capability is already implemented but the next trick is to establish something that keeps my GPS location updated on a Google map together with snapshot images from a bike mounted camera. Sounds ambitious at this stage and whether I can put together equipment that will survive the journey and not get in the way remains to be seen. At this early stage things are looking good though, I've already identified the components I plan to use and I'm ready to get them ordered.
Why? In part for me it's got to do with work/life balance, those that know me know I've been heavily on one end of that balance for quite sometime but more than this it's something I've wanted to do for a long time.
Stay tuned, get subscribed and if you're interested in joining me on this ride let me know, I'm not too eager on doing it alone!
