The crowd gathered 'round


The crowd gfathered 'round us, originally uploaded by sanuzbord.

Well everyone, it is the final few hours before we leave Seattle... and the country for a long time. Today we ran more errands, canceled our cell phones (I KNOW!) and FINALLY strapped ALL of our stuff to our bikes and took them for a spin. As you can see we drew a huge crowd on our test ride.

Our ride lasted for approximately two minutes. We didn't even make it around the block! I know what your thinking at you're wrong, we stopped because our hands were cold and we had to dismantle our bikes and pack them up, not because everything fell apart, at least give us until 15 miles into our first ride in Mexico. As you can see we drew a huge croud on our test ride.

Tomorrow morning we head to Merida, Mexico where we will be beginning our journey. Check out flickr for more pics of our final few hours in Seattle.

Good night from Seattle (for the last time) and so long for now, next you hear from us we will be speaking with Mexican accents.

Peace out,
David
