Long Haul motorcycle blog

Not all hairdressers are the same. Cindy goes to a guy in Albany, Oregon named Dave, who rides what I'd call a full dress Indian to & from work. Don't ask more details...I haven't ridden since the mid 70's, and then it was a Yamaha 360 enduro. Anyway, I guess the Sturgis trek got boring for Dave, he and his wife have ridden there from Oregon several times. This time, he plans a longer ride...here's the first segment of his blog if anyone here cares to follow along:

Done the Alcan twice. Grindingly dull. Take the ferry up from prince Rupert.

Which begs the question: Why twice?

The Alcan isn’t the great adventure it used to be. its a loooong grind.
