Trying to configure MCP2515 to ESP-32 NodeMCU board

I'm try to configure an MCP2515 to an ESP-32 NodeMCU board. I only want to be able to read a small subset of messages from a CANbus on a BMW R1250GS
I'm using this library:
autowp/arduino-mcp2515: Arduino MCP2515 CAN interface library (github.com)

I have not connected anything to the bike yet - I'm trying to determine if I've wired stuff up the right way in advance. Here's what I've done

1. Above library downloaded to IDE
2. Verified that SPI3/VSPI is configured as follows ( MOSI = GPIO 23, MISO = 19, SCLK =18 CS = 05)
3. Made the following connections based on drawings with autowp library and also the NodeMCU board docusments here pinoutESP32NodeMCU.png - Google Drive

MCP NodeMCU ESP32
INT -> GPIO 02
SCK -> 18
SI -> 23
SO -> 19 (with 4k7 resistor inline)
CS -> 05
GND -> GND
VCC -> 5V
INT -> unconnected

4. Compiled and uploaded the Read only example code
   Without the MCP board being connected to a CANbus I'm getting garbage the serial monitor - I'd expected either an error (because not connected) or nothing.

rst:0x1 (POWERON_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)

Does this look ok?
Do I need to connect INT and if so - where?
Thanks
