In the first two days of this trip we have seen as much or more rain than we experienced throughout South and Central America in 2011; and that’s not very much. We stopped to put on rain gear once, but otherwise have been very fortunate riding on dry pavement. As you can imagine there is no comparison between the roads we experienced in South and Central America in 2011 and this trip to the Arctic Circle. At times we have almost felt a little guilty for having it so easy, but the memories of the last MWAM adventure have flooded our minds. Riding together again has brought back recollections of stories we had forgotten. In these last 48 hours we’ve shared lots of laughs and a few stories we could never repeat. And of course, that always reminds us how much we miss our fellow riders. Considering it is Sunday I couldn’t help but begin to worship along the way. It was like a grand cathedral with seating for one. Of the seven or so hours we spent on the bikes today, it just flew because of the incredible scenery along the way.
