    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

My adventure to Alaska, as promised at the Dave Davis Rally earlier

I met a few of you at the Davis Davis Rally in Farmington, MO too long ago and chatted a little bit about my Alaska trip and all the adventure that was involved (including breaking multiple ribs and having to ride 5200 miles back home). I promised to share the link on the ADV website about it; so here it is:

http://advrider.com/index.php?threa...abbits-and-the-norman-bates-gas-stop.1078835/

It's easier to just link there than try to cut/paste dozens of relevant postings here. Of course, if you have any questions, please feel fee to let me know. And, if you are considering riding to Alaska...DO IT! No other ride will compare. If you want a guide, and want to pay my way, I'll be glad to lead you next year and you can just sit back and ride and relax. :encouragement:

Thanks for sharing Jeff. Great adventure. Do you also own a Suzuki GS?

Jeff doesn't have a GS, but after Jeff and I met and did some wrenching by way of the V-Strom world, I invited him to the Painter Dave hooraw in Missouri. As we've found before, it turns out V-Strom folks fit in perfectly with the GS crowd.

That reminds me... I need to set Jeff up with some seat time on my 850...
 
I enjoyed your story Jeff, but if you're ever in Vancouver for Gawd's sake make sure you do tip or your next beer might taste a little salty ! I must admit I'm a little astounded by your trouble with cards as I've used mine in bumfvuck nowhere in India......
 
Excellent write-up. I enjoyed every word !! I'm not sure I would have the fortitude that it takes for an epic adventure such as this.
 
On behalf of my boss, he would like to thank you personally for two things... one, I spent almost an entire work day reading your report on one computer screen while I had Google maps open on the other, tracing your route. Second, he might not know this yet, but I am going to have to figure out how to take off a month or more to ride up to Alaska! Thanks for the write up, it was very enjoyable.
