The Mission: To get 2 Non-Denominational Christians and their 2005 KLR250's to
their mission in Teguscigalpa Honduras and myself and my 1993 KLR250 to a
Catholic mission in Flores, Honduras. the goal is to donate the bikes to the
missions
The Players: (names have been changed to protect the ignorant)
Wagonmaster- (who we'll call Larry)riding experience- 44yrs. if you include the
time riding with pa and uncles on old goldstars, yds1's, and other chicken
wired works of art. Offroad riding experience-39yrs if you include the time
upside down in a car.
Greenhorn 1-(who we'll call Curly)
riding experience- unknown by wagonmaster at time of departure, but rumor has
it that he took the training wheels off his KLR the day of departure.
Preparation for trip- intense praying for guardian angels, 2 artificial
titanium hips to make him lighter and faster, and a haircut that resembles
Curly of the three stooges
Greenhorn 2- (who we'll call Moe)
riding experience- unknown, but said to have owned a crotch rocket years ago.
He should do fine off-road. Preparations for trip- packing every known medical
supply for monkeybutt and changing cell service so his wife could contact him
at any given moment.
The idea was to load the bikes in a van and leave on Valentines day to save on
the cost of chocolate and flowers. Drive straight through to brownsville,
unload bikes and take 10-11 days to get to Honduras. Once we got to Honduras we
would work at the missions for a week and fly home. Everything was going as
planned. We arrived in Brownsville as planned and would cross the border in the
morning......
Day One
