Yermo has pulled the sidestand up and is underway.

This ride is now underway.

It's a very weird feeling knowing that buffalo will not be following my progress. There's a deep sense of alone that pervades me. 

All packed. Electronics charged. (almost forgot the sena). 

The quantity of electronics I carry with me is kind of nuts. 

I slept under 6 hours which usually sets me up for failure, but I'm not feeling too bad. It's going to be crazy hot today but after that should cool down to acceptable temperatures especially as I make my way North. 

Yermo is going on The Beloved Blue Oil Burner (1992 BMW K100RS FL ABS).
