Well we made it to Prince George BUT not without some issue's.My wifes bike ( GS500 ) kept starving for fuel and dying in the middle of nowhere.Made a call to the old owner ( a GS guru ) and we got going and made it 250 miles.Then a mystery oil leak on her bike started,and it's pretty bad so I will tend to that later.The X ran great !!.

All I keep hearing about Canad is flooding... roads and bridges washed out... I hope you don't run into any of that! Hopefully your riding in a different part of the country!

 

[Nortwestrider]

Yup,we are about a 1,000 km west of there.But our first day we rode thru that storm on it's way to Alberta and it was NASTY !!.
here's a pic of me try to figure out my wifes bike.

I just realized I have the same two bikes sitting in my carport!
Never thought of putting those tires on my gs!
Mine was originally purple too!
Have fun on your trip!
You made it to Prince George before all of the flooding in the south!

I just did a lot of research about Alaska rain in each month. May AND June are the least Rain. July and August are the worst. Mr. Murphy has a way of just staying around.
I moved my trip up two weeks because of this weather pattern. It's got to be the weatherman's fault. Today, I came across Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona praying for rain. HOT could not describe the heat. I had on so much sun tan cream on that it was flying off of me and getting on the bags.

Like that heat ain't bad enough. No Mr. Murphy sends in his unbelievable reinforcements, dust storms. You can't even see the taillights of the car in front of you. Traffic going the other direction all have their lights on, you can't see them. If you stop, the guy behind you runs over you, if you keep going you run into the guy in front of you. Every place on your body and the bike are covered in sand. Your not breathing right, but neither is the bike. Your both spiting and coughing. And that stuff that use to be suntan cream, that which is on your body is now sandpaper. And now after hearing your current problems, I have full confidence that Mr. Murphy intends to wash out the roads and bridges in Alaska with me on them.

Love your pictures.

Does anyone have a Mr. Murphy VooDoo Doll?

You need to realize that "Mr. Murphy" was an OPTIMIST.

Heat Wave in Anchorage

You need to realize that "Mr. Murphy" was an OPTIMIST.

Forget the rain. If you don't slow down you'll get into the heatwave that is plaguing Anchorage. All the bikinis are out at Goose Lake though, so maybe hurry.

 

[PPWW]

I really like the look of these tyres. But I don't think I will ever need to use one of these. Anyways, nice photos!
