Don't do that. Once you decide for sure you are going to make the trip we can have a private message about the details. We'll help you out and get you well done. Then we will plan a trip to England
Spare bike, and we can put a CT on it!
Mexican has also offered a ride for you. He is in Tulsa, Ok. As far as weather, we have to wait and see. It could be in the 80s or in the 50s or less, clear of rainy. Last time Steel and I rode to Leakey through a cold front. Neither of us was dressed for it. I froze my arse off. You will need a Mesh jacket, gloves and rain gear. Carrying a helmet is a hastle. We have plenty of old stinky helmets unless your skull is XXl. Give us more details about what you expect from your trip. It's very far out so there is time to sort everything out.
