V is for Visas and Vaccinations

First off, a huge apology for the extended hiatus. I assure you there has been plenty of work going on behind the scenes (including the development of an all-new heretohere.com) to prepare for the tour in May.

Right now Dylan and I are working on our Vaccinations and our Visas. If anyone knows a good travel agent in Canada that deals with Russian multi-entry business visas, please, please give me a shout. It is by far the most complicated of the half dozen or so visas we need and it's starting to stress me out.

In other news, winter has pretty much arrived here in Calgary so it looks like it's near the end of the riding season. My Aria helmet has proven to be less comfortable on long distances (greater than 100km) than I had hoped. There will be some minor modifications made to the cheekpad as the strap on one side keeps digging into my jaw and giving me a huge headache.

Dylan has spent most of the summer working on his back yard and I'm sure will be looking forward to a break from that to continue planning the tour.

More to come...
