Might be a good place to start planning from. Says that the road is now paved.

How much time off are you taking to do a trip like this? I've always wanted to go on a bike. I ain't getting any younger so maybe sooner rather than later is how I should be looking at it...

I was daydreaming about this very subject the other day at work, i was looking at what the longest roadtrip that i could think of would be. It'd start off with me flying down to phoenix and buying a valkyrie (i'm selling my shadow up here in vancouver, which should be close to what a valk costs down in phoenix...) then riding over to california then up the coast highway up to Alaska then east to the yukon and then down into alberta where the parent's live and back to vancouver after that... it'd take a good month to do i figure... of course that trip is just a pipe dream but I do like the idea of taking the ferry up to alaska, and i'll probably end up buying another bike from the states this spring/summer... I'll be doing some reading up on what is out there in alaska for a while i think.

Taking advantage of that exchage rate, eh? I don't blame you Talon, I was looking at a Bandit when they weren't available here for a couple years. Man, they soak you guys up there! Even with a better exchange rate then they were $10,000. :shock:
