Tunisia tomorrow!

Landed in Milan yesterday - still quite unclear as to the format of this event, but there will be a brief meeting later tonight, and then the actual "big" meeting will occur once we're sitting on a boat headed to Tunisia. The mystery is part of what makes this interesting...



Drove this around for a few days prior to the rally:

Support vehicles are getting ready, other teams are showing up.




My bike is prepped & ready:




Tomorrow we ride to Genova & catch a boat from there.
