20-25 years ago I did a month long trip from Montreal, destination Grand Canyon.
My idea of a motorcycle trip is that you take all the roads less travelled.
So, me and my ex-wife arrive at the crossing to USA, at some boarder crossing that was toatally deserted. No cars going into Canada, no cars going out.
The guy came out of his hut, I think we woke him up, and asked for identification.
We were both produced Canadian passports. Her's says she's born in France.
At the time, all you needed to cross the boarder was a birth certificate. The guy wasn't used to seeing passports....
You have to realise that a Honda 650 loaded down with 2 passengers and everything they need for a month is an odd sight.
The guy asks me, where are you going?
I say destination is Grand Canyon, then we head back.
He asks, how much money do you have with you?
I said, right now, about a hundred bucks, but I have this American Express card and this Visa gold as well.
hrumph, he kinda looks up the road and down the road and a little bit around, second glance at the motocycle totally loaded... then hands back our passports and says have a good trip.
That particular crossing, I imagine they've put up razor wire and blocked it of recently........
