... of it were you having in mind as a test run for Pan Am?

In that sense, it really was a test run for the Pan Am, because I pretty much set up my kit as I was like, "Okay, this is gonna be good for the Pacific Coast, but I also think this is gonna be my kit for the Pan Am." Um, and I ended up dropping right bef- 'cause on the Pan Am, I am gonna be bringing a little bit more warmth, um, on this.

So on the Pacific Coast ride, right at the start, I kind of dropped, like, my warm leggings and something else I don't even remember.

Um, but everything else was pretty much exactly how I plan on, on bringing, uh, my gear on the Pan Am, and it's definitely the same bike as well.

So from a gear perspective, it was pretty much a, a shakedown, um, a very true shakedown.

Um, and it was good because I've actually learned there's, there are a couple changes I'll be making.

Um, and so that's, that was a really good thing to come from it.
