Bike contract signed
Today I got the signed contract back, so now most of the bike issue is solved. I have been looking forward to this, so now I just need to get the insurance that I need for riding the bike in the USA, Mexico and Central America. The only thing that I need to fix on the bike is to do the doohickey, or the idler shaft lever. This is a relatively simple process and I have gotten someone to help me to do it.
It have been a bit complicated to fix things mainly on email from Norway. In retrorespect it would be a smart idea and start with this work earlier. However, in the beginning I was not alone on the project and it was one of the others travelers that later backed out that had been assigned to fix the bikes.
A comple of days ago I ordered maps and travel guides. I have got them shipped to my hotel in Miami, so I basicly have not started planning the trip yet. That does not bother me. It is supposed to be an adventure, and would it really be an adveture if everything were planned?
However, I have thought a bit of the destination of the motorbike journey. I think that it would be fun to visit Panama. This means that I eighter need to go back and forth through the Central America or I can go to Panama and leave the bike there or ship it back to Los Angeles. I will check up on this tomorrow.

Heisann du!
Se det, då va du snart avgårde, eller har du allerede reist. Har ikkje fått lest alt i bloggen, men ska gjør det, men då vett eg ikkje ka ti du reise. Iallfall ha ein fantastisk tur og skriv innom her så ofta du kan. Og husk, ta vare på deg sjøl, og seriøst, hvis det oppstår noe kjipt, og som du ikkje har kontroll over, e det tide for å bare la ting gå. Så ikkje prøv å stopp slåsskamper og ver helt hvis du sko bli trua, det tror eg ikkje lønne seg der, mentaliteten e litt annerledes;) Men fantastiske folk, så kos deg masse masse!
Hasta luego amigo:)

Hola amigo!
Great news about “Scooty” it looks very nice! It seem like the bike is big enough to take me with you as a copilot-translator to Panama! Looking forward to see you in Guate!!
Ha det bra amigo!
Hei Gunni og takk for at du tok turen innom. Som alltid følger jeg rådene fra deg.
