All in all a pretty fair night "hopping bars" on the river.

And by the way Bigfoot105 I think I made "Top Gun" on the way home.

The Wrangells are to far from home for this trip. All these pictures came from within an hour of the Anchorage bowl. This one in particular was taken on the Matanuska River just outside of Palmer, AK.

Here's another from the same place but taken earlier in the week.

Ya know, my best friend moved to Alaska at the start of the summer, and I had begrudged her for doing it until now. I can see why a person would want to live somewhere so beautiful...thank you for sharing your amazing pictures!

Maybe I'll have to pay her a visit sometime... :brow

Was it very cold when you were out?

When you're ready we're ready.

And since the bikes are GS's we're thinking of just going with tire chains this year. :p

I've got to get that fat painter guy (Oh hi Andy), his friend in Battlecreek and Threeflys primed up for a three-some.

If those guys pansy out I hope to be there for sure next summer. Can't keep putting off the adventure of a life time forever... :deal

Likewise if you ever get down in lower 48 (closest to you) I'll show you some places to get dirty... :laugh

I saw your post on the IBMWR Classifieds. Chris did you get a GS?
That would be a pretty wild tour to go through Alaska on the way to Wiscownson.

HMMMMmmmmm...... The question is Am I getting any younger?

Bob_M getting dirty?

HHMMmmm. ?

Ditto what Knary and RiderR1150GSAdv said!! Your punishment for posting a good ride report like that is to have the Termination Dust fly early this year.

I wish you hadn't said anything about the "termination dust", now we have to put up with this type of scenery while we are riding.
