"I just met traveller
Rene Bakker from the Netherlands on his Yamaha XTZ660 at Flaming Gorge, Utah,
USA. Click on 'Crossing America'. Page is mostly in Dutch for now. He is doing
well but having a hard time avoiding speeding tickets."
there was even a note in
his guestbook from a (female) police office he was stopped by, so he is making
an impression...
from the website:
"... left his hometown
Broekerhaven (Bovenkarspel) in the Netherlands, on the 22nd of July 2001 and
started his journey at JFK airport in New York. His goal will be to reach Cape
Horn within 1 Year. On his Internet site people will be able to follow his
trip. Rene will send some stories and pictures and they will be shown on his
site on a regular base. Unfortunately the language we use is Dutch but
depending on the amount of visitors from the United States the site will be
translated. It’s possible to leave a message to Rene here."
OK everyone, send Rene a
note asking for translations, and remind him of the other English speaking countries
out there... ;) Grant
