長いキャノンボールの旅にお付き合いくださってありがとうございました！時間を割いてコメントやメールをくださった皆さん、本当に励まされました、ありがとう。 私達3人、老犬、インディアン、そしてチャボバン、無事にアズサに戻ってまいりました。夢のような話で実感は全く沸きませんけど、本当に行ったのか、そして戻って来たのかも定かではありませんけど、モーターサイクルという乗りものに対する気持ちに大きな変化があったこと、素晴らしい出会い、絶対に諦めない根性を教えてくれた大先輩のキャノンボーラー達のスピリット、これから少しずつかみしめてもっともっとバイクで遊んでどんどんバカらしいことにチャレンジしながら楽しく暮らしていこうと思います。
the indian, you are incredible!
インディアン、お疲れちゃん！
what is this huge box?
あれ、何この大きな箱は？
shinya's new tool cabinet...
he said "it grew bigger!"
行きに見つけた木村氏のツール・キャビネット。
何か急に大きくなったよね？と、木村氏。
いえ、最初から大きかったです。

Loved following your trip. Where can we get a Cannonball 80 Motorcycle t-shirt?!?!
I'd buy a 80 t-shirt for real
Congratulations team Chabott !!! ... Great diary ... and such style.
This was so rad. Glad you guys are safe back at home.
Like so many others I too enjoyed following the adventures of Team Chabott everyday. I would check the blog first thing everyday when I got home from work.
And the #80 T-Shirt is a tremendous idea.
Great job guys!! I've enjoyed reading your blog and looking at the pics during the run.
thank you!!
i will try to put up #80 and other t-shirts on our website soon.
Congratulation to an monumental and historical achievement! I'd guess there was some nights with precious little sleep and lots of worries but you all pulled throu with flying flags! I'd really like to know what the riding comfort, prestanda and road holding abilitys was like, on the rear sprung Indian compared to hardtails on the course? You're among very few now living that really know what and how it is to ride the Indian long distance and I would really appreciate a riders (and of course mechanics)wiew!

Ayu, It was a great accomplishment, and a little bit of fun too. I hope to see you guys again soon.
If you can make it up to SF for the 49 Mile Ride on Halloween, here are the details: http://occhiolungo.wordpress.com/2010/10/02/10th-annual-49-mile-ride/
Any old bike can do the run, just a few hours in the saddle, followed by a bbq lunch on the San Francisco Bay.
occhiolungo: yes, it was! you rock, P! only 49 miles? that's nothing! but sounds great. hope we can make it. we love san francisco. i went to high school in san francisco. one of our favorite cities in the U.S.
