Great story Kevan.

I know many of the roads well, having grown up in the area shown in the lower left corner of the route map.

I have thought about the Blackfly, but I don't think I have the stones to try it.

Thanks for sharing your adventure.

Tim,
You really should come out. It is a great non-competitive atmosphere and a great deal of fun. Here is a link to another Blackfly story. On page three he has a picture of my bike. He listed it as an old kat.

Great site as well Kevan...the pictures are fantastic.

Your bike is very sharp, looks great....even if the description is wrong.

Thanks Tim.

The bike is holding up well for being 19 years old and having 166,00 kms on it.

Yeah I think he could too. 1000 miles in somewhere around 24 hours on an 84? Yeah He'll fit in.
