8/6/05 – We had two customers who traveled a long way to visit us at Sawbill this weekend. Delor and Angela Da Silva rode all the way from Brazil to Sawbill. This is actually their second bike trip in North America. In 2003, they circumnavigated South America and North America, including a visit to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. Delor commented that the 1400 miles of gravel on the Alaskan Highway was a challenge – not “good gravel” like the Sawbill Trail. The Da Silvas are headed back to Brazil where, in January, they are having the motorcycle shipped to Europe for a projected five year ride around Europe and Asia.

Delor and Angela Da Silva vow to return to Sawbill for a canoe trip once they complete their motorcycle world tour.
