On July 1'st we will be heading out to Alaska with another couple. They have never been there and they wanted someone to share the ride with. Edie and I had been to Alaska 10 years ago in our truck and have wanted to go back ever since.
I've gone over the bike carefully, put new tires on it, lots of maintenance and checked out everything. I rewired the trailer and put new wheels and bearings on it. We spent lots of time getting all of our paperwork ready including insurance papers, passports etc.. All of the planning and preparation work is done, now we just have to load up the trailer and bike.

| This is what we'll be riding and the trailer we'll be pulling |
We'll be camping most of the way up to help keep the cost reasonable. Our route is extremely flexible and if you are interested you can follow us through my Spot Tracker .
Henry's Spot Tracker . It will show the last 30 days of tracks, which as of today shows where we went camping over the Fathers Day Weekend. Just before we head out I will post a link to the Spot Adventures website that will also allow you to view the pictures we post as we get to WiFi access points.
The only thing that concerns me about starting this trip is getting Bear Spray into Canada. Supposedly if it meets certain criteria it will not be much of an issue. I'll keep you all posted on what happens when we try to cross the border.
