Day 21 Continued

I watched this small plane take off.

The next few photos show the bike secured to the floor with heavy duty twine. The bike is sitting on its centerstand and the twine is tied to its case guards. The twine was furnished by the ferry, but it was my responsibility to secure the bike. I always knew there would come a time when those knots I learned in Boy Scouts would come in handy. I now carry regular ratcheting tie down straps.

Two helmets were carried on this trip. The black open face helmet was worn during fair weather, and the silver full face helmet was worn during inclement weather. Whichever helmet was not being worn was kept in the tankbag while riding. The silver helmet was attached to the holder behind the right saddlebag for the duration of the ferry ride.

The bike is barely visible in this photo.

Several vehicles departed at this stop.

The ferry held many vehicles.
