The inside passage
Deadlines and Schedules Oh-my, to this point and after this
point Schedules are Just a guide more than the rule, today our Schedule is
really marking a deadline we need to meet, I’m actually nervous I will miss the
ship and nervous about securing my bike so it does not fall over, as well I
have a fear someone’s car is going to roll around at run over my bike…
This leg of the trip will involve vary little riding but
still take about 16 hours starting at 7:30am and arriving at 11:30PM, it’s
going to be a long day..
This is, in reverse part of the trip I had planned for my
2013 trip, but at the time I just could not see myself riding on a ferry rather
than riding my motorcycle. My plan then was to ride a three day Ferry down and
experiencing the full inside passage and the camaraderie that goes with it, I
had visions of a Hippie tent town aboard a ship cursing down and amazing
labyrinth of mountains and sea, then jumping on my bike and riding only two
more days home, it was just too much to think my trip would be over like that
so I rode the solo trip and had the time of my life.
This time the risk is small, I will not miss any part of the
ride, in fact on the return trip I will ride the missing portion taken by the
ferry on the way up, I’m adding an important piece missing from road travel and
experiencing something new, I just need to find something to do for 16hrs.
