Designed to record the travels of myself (Dave Demers), Dave McCune and Fred Suckow as we ride our motorcycles from Vancouver, Washington to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska and back. I estimate the trip will take 17 days of riding and we have allowed 21 days for the trip. We will be riding a BMW R 1200GSA, R 1200GS and a KLR. I meant to add that Big Dave estimates the trip to be about 6,000 miles round trip.

Day 5 Raining in Whithorse
Woke up this morning to pouring rain outside. I could have swore that the weather had said only a chance of showers. This must be where the Portland area weatherman get their training.
Sitting in the Hotel cafe waiting for breakfast, first real breakfast I have had since before starting this trip. I am not looking forward to starting the day in rain although with my waterproof boots I purchased from Columbia HD MC and my other rain gear I don't fear getting wet. My foul weather gear as worked great so far, but today will be the first day I plug in. The nice thing about staying in a larger Hotel downtown is that our bikes have been under a cover all night and loading them up will be a dry one.
So since I put a plug in for Harley Motor clothes purchased at Columbia maybe I can Jason to sponsor my trip for a day??? I doubt but I will say I have been very please with the boots I got from Joni they are comfortable, warm and dry.
