Beginnings






This blog has been set up to document the experiences of a trip by motorcycle across Asia from Japan through Siberia, Mongolia, The "Stans"and western Russia to Europe during the summer of 2010. Five of us will arrive in Japan on the fourth of May 2010 with our motorcycles to begin. I of course am Canadian and the other 4 are from Australia, one of whom is an expat Canadian who has married and lived in Australia many years. More on them later when I post from Japan.
One of the first of several challenges for this trip was the crating and shipping of the motorcycle to Tokyo. Mine is to be shipped by sea.

The photos above are of the crating.Special thanks to Frank Bajich and Al Caillet, whose help made this easy.
