Wired for sound

Steve came over this afternoon, and we set up the bike-to-bike communication system for the trip. It is just a $99 Excelvan BT Interphone V6-1200. The instructions appeared to have been translated from Chinese by Google Translate, so we had a little trouble at first, but with the help of some YouTube videos, we got them all set up.

The transmitter clips to the bottom of the helmet, and the wiring is hidden under the padding. A foam-covered microphone sits in front of the mouth.  We took a brief test ride and were able to hear each other clearly on the road. That should make the ride even more fun.

I just have to finish packing tonight, and we should be off on our adventure.
