The motorcycle plane ticket has been booked and paid, as well as the Carnet and EU green card insurance. I've booked a hotel next to the airport in Paris so I will have a place to land when I arrive. Receiving of the bike will reportedly take only a couple hours. Fingers crossed. I have detailed directions of what to do in Paris from my stateside agent, Motorcycle Express. So far the experience with them has been excellent. 

Left to do: print-outs of useful paperwork for the road, and packing. I would like to review my packing prior to departure and do one last pass at lightening the load.
