Great advice, Ziptie! You actually beat me to the punch. I was going to post that very same advice as I was doing just that at three this morning. If you bank with Wells Fargo, you can do the whole thing very simply online. I do a lot of touring on the bike, and the couple of times I’ve forgotten to notify them became a pain in the a$$ trying to explain it over the phone.
On another note, I just came back from said bank where I pulled out $350 to cover the fuel stops. I quietly handed them a note that said I wanted $100 in ones, $100 in fives, and $150 in tens. Of course I quickly showed them my ATM card, so no one would pull the alarm. :))
Getting excited now!!
