Dreaming of Dakar

As soon as I am out of work today I am getting on the bike and heading north to Canada!  On Saturday I am going to an off-road training class which is designed specifically for people doing the Paris 2 Dacre ride that I am doing later on in June.  I am also going to get a chance to meet my Paris Dacre teammates Robb and Brad in person.  I got in touch with them via the internet.  They needed one more rider for their team and I was lucky enough to be the guy.

I am going to try to do some short posts using my phone on the trip but if that doesn't work I will just have to write up a trip report here when I get home.  I should be home Monday evening.
