I don't really know what I'm doing

Hi everybody (I hope somebody reads this)

As per our profile below, Gary and I are travelling across Canada later in the year.  It has been in the planning since December 09 when we first made contact with Globebusters (see link below).  It is now getting really close and I thought I would try and write a blog to keep a record and so that people that keep asking can keep track of what we are doing and how we are.  Any body else that finds it interesting then great, the more the merrier.  Gary and I are more and more excited as it gets closer, in addition to being a bit apprehensive.  I will try and keep you all up to date with the planning, trips out to get miles under our belts, bike maintenance/prep and repairs and of course once we are on the way any interesting travel stuff too.  The link below is the Globebusters page that shows the map of our journey and the 5 week itinerary which will give you an idea of the mileage and terrain.  My own biggest fear is the Labrador Highway, 900 miles of graded gravel.

I'll leave it at that for today, those who know me well, know that IT stuff is not really my forte.  Hopefully I will shortly upload some photos etc.  I have bought an on bike camera/video so by the time I go I need to test that out too and try and post some of the results.
