RIDING AT LAST 280km I`ll start putting the distance I travel each day under the heading from now on so you lot can check if I`m being soft or not without having to read the whole story. I left Narita about 11am and headed north, wasn`t really sure where too or why but I wanted to go for a ride and I`ve always liked going North! It was all very tame to start with, but after an hour of sitting in traffic in 40 degree heat with all the riding gear on (pictures t...

TIME TO TRY AGAIN Back across to the airport first thing to charm my way through customs, managed to speak to a girl this time instead of the grumpy old bloke from yesterday. She signed and stamped everything with no problems and I was back across at the cargo area by 9:30am.

PAPERWORK Right then, I havn`t been able to update this for a while, which I think will be a bit of a theme for this trip, so I will add the days in when I can.

Ok so I was ment to just cruise out to the airport at Narita this morning, pick up my bike and be on my way to Copenhagen... ye...

Morning, Leaving Tokyo this morning to head out to the airport at Narita (about 60km away) to pick up the bike... hopefully! Tokyo has been great, just what I expected. Went to Shiyuba yesterday where all the kids dress up like freaks and hang out, sore a few but there is never enough freaks around for my liking. One chick had the most face piercings I`ve ever seen, I counted 12 but might have missed few. Pretty cool place Tokyo, you could definently spend a...

Hell yeah! Made it too Japan at last. Sorry to everyone that I didn`t catch up with before leaving... it was heaps out of control in the last few weeks. Crated up the bike on Monday and posted it off, moved all my stuff back to the oldies place Monday night, come back Tuesday (it`s a good 2.5 hour drive each way for those that don`t know) and cleaned the house Wednesday (sort of)! By that stage I was done! The weeks before have all been bike prep and getting al...
