I’m sitting at Gate A2 in Lexington Bluegrass Airport, KY on my way to Minneapolis via Chicago. It’s hard to believe the rally is over after all the prep and it feels strange to know that the Kiwi is out there riding, on his way back to Minneapolis without me. Let me be clear, I don’t think I could have done another 12-14 hour day on the back of the bike and it was entirely my choice to fly back. But now I feel kind of left out of the adventures and it is really weird to be apart after 2 weeks of being together 24/7.

Over the next few days I’ll write about our adventures on Butt Lite IX. I hope you enjoy!
