The GS has come home from South America.
Ahhhh the bike is back home!!! Finally!!!
We loaded Dan's bike as well as ours onto the trailer at Leo and Cheryl's for the last leg of the journey. I hooked up the battery on the GS and the old girl fired right up!!
Now, I just have to change all the fluids and it will be ready for another great year of riding. Too bad I am fresh out of holidays until 2009.
Ben's bike is vacationing in Red Deer until his owner is able to make it to Canada. Getting the KLR through customs at first looked very tough, until we were informed that all we had to do was pay duty on it. A refundable fee (when Ben is in Canada) of 5% on the estimated value of $2000 seemed like a fair enough deal.
Dan's KTM has a few bruises after the 24,000 km trip. A flat front tire with a dented rim, a dead battery and one leaky fork seal. All well worth the experience I am sure!!!!

Hey Guys,
Glad to see you got your bike back.
I would imagine you were getting a little nervous.
