Alaska 2014!
« on: August 12, 2014, 06:53:02 AM »
Posting this now, the next 3 days are going to be BUSY!

As many of yall know, got a big trip to Alaska coming up and i am really excited about going.

a little over a month ago, we shipped our bikes north to Seattle.  Mine didn't make it in one piece.




I had to really scramble to get another bike, and found an extremely great deal on a 2007 FJR1300a, all in effort to try and save my Alaska trip!



This is a great bike, and I got an extremely great deal on it!  But, it seems that me buying this bike has extremely upset a person who I had considered a good friend.  I get blamed for copying him once again, and then I am told that I am not allowed to go on the trip to Alaska.  All because I have the same color bike as him... that i have committed some type of "Motorcycle faux pas?"

So, I leave Friday, and looks like it's going to be a Solo Alaska 2014!

A link to this years Tracker!

Internet access I expect to be weak, so I will posts updates when I can!  I will give a full report when I get back!

Good luck Bryce and enjoy the trip. Riding solo has it's big advantages. Go when we want, stop when you want, stay where you want, etc. Nobody whineing about this or that. I love traveling on long trips by myself for those reasons. "Nobody to talk to?"  BS  As you probably know when you by yourself, people don't feel threatened and will always come by and talk to you. So enjoy my friend and be safe!!  :c :c To a good time  :c :c

Please tell me you are joking.

Yes really Rex.

This is the whole story, as it has told to me in a grand total of three conversations.  If there is anymore to this story it hasn't been told to me.  So please if you know more, as it seems you do, please feel free to share. 

Because from where i sit, it's all about the color of a bike.

So your right, not cool at all.

I've almost always traveled alone and have had some very enjoyable, memorable trips. Sharing a great experience with others may enhance the experience, but fending for yourself and being the sole decision maker with regard to your schedule and itinerary can also be very gratifying. Have a fun and safe trip.

I wish I could make Alaska anytime in my life.  Ride the good ride. 

Not saying you will, but if you ever bought a denim black H-D road glide, you can ride with me anytime.   :bikerider:
