Even in the rain the coast has a beauty to it!
We will be doing a proper ride report and gear review when we get home but here are a few pictures of the inside of our tent. Last year we used a MSR Mutha Hubba Tent which was great but a bit cool for Alaska. This year we are using a Big Agnes tent and…
Yep we pitched our tent with rain again in our near future. Only 4 days until we have to go home. Had a great KLIM rally and long day today. Over 800 kms.
In Bend , Oregon and heading to the coast. Air is much cooler here!
A little preview of our ride on Saturday July 14 12 at the KLIM Rally
Heidenau K60’s look brand new with over 3000 KM’s on them and over 100 off road. LOVE these tires!
(Thought this was appropriate for our trip) This is such a great article addressing many of the issues we are contending with on this trip. Last Summer 2011 when we rode Alaska, we were riding in really cold and wet conditions. This trip it will continue to be HOT and dry. As in any trip…
After waking up to an unusual thunder and lightning storm passing through I could see some light coming through the dark ominous clouds. Prediction for the weather was to be sunny and hot for Maple Ridge, as well as HOT on the road. Well, the sun came out in Maple Ridge for us to leave…
Re-blogging my own post to just remind everyone we are taking off today for a couple of weeks. Blog will be update when we can and if you want you can take a look at our GPS track live as we figure out where we are going on this trip other than Rigby, ID. On…
Once again a rider has really been able to capture via his video just what ADV riding is all about. I am not sure we would ever be able to just ride pavement ever…well, we might have to when we get older… 😉 Everyday I see the majority of bikes being cruisers on the road. …
On our trip will be using our SPOT Connect for tracking purposes. This is so useful for our friends and family to keep an eye on us while traveling and in way easy on us so we do not have to make phone calls. So, feel free as I say follow the bouncing ball and…
Another post to add to our post from yesterday about the new 2013 GS BMW Family. So, why are the “new & improved” GS bikes not making HUGE impression on us? Just disappointed that BMW did not take advantage of the opportunity to smash this bike out of the park. Does that mean we would…
Well, it’s that time again to get new “shoes” put on our bikes. I am amazed at the range we seem to be getting out of the Heidenau K60 tires. Leslie is over 23,000 KM now and Cheryl has over 19,000 KM’s on hers. Keep the PSI up and they last without jeopardizing the tread. …
Our new bucket list destination to ride is Iceland. I have posted about this beautiful country before and here is another spectacular video showing off all that Iceland has to offer. What a place just begging to be explored via a bike….the new Alaska????? by Miriam Agwai
