Bingo you got it (first) Your turn for the next one.
Correct. And a great ride it was.That's me in middle and I'd be guessing after 11 years! 1,156 mile in 18 hr's. But I'm thinking I've been there twice.
We felt a bit tired at the end of the day.
Sorry, begging off. Since Photo Bucket crapped out, I haven't posted any pics here at all, and I'm not smart enough to figure out how now. That's for you tech-savvy youngsters! Enjoying the thread though.
Wish I could remember where along the way. I have always remembered this as one of my favorite pictures because it is motorcycling LD riding at it's essence. We were in the middle of a SS1000 on day two of an epic tour of Arizona and Utah with great friends.
Yes, north south road (hwy 93) Can't remember where exactly.
Postimages.org is free and simple to use. Doesn't need a membership. Wouldn't count on it for longterm storage but fine for this or a "for sale" posting etc.
Per the determined rules of the thread, there is no obligation to post a pic! The more people that guess, the quicker it moves along and I think that's more fun. It falls back to the previous poster if you don't want to put up a pic and at any time any poster can push back to OP (me) as I've got a bunch ready to go.
I finally found it! I was almost convinced global warming had melted that landmark. Then I found your SpotWalla link from your post on the SS1000. You guys didn't take 93 / Great Basin Hwy down from Ely to Crystal Springs. You took 318.
That's the location. I forgot we had gone an more straight route through that section. Well worth the ride through the area. Beautiful and no traffic.
I'll go ahead and guess on this one, but I haven't been that far north. I was able to zoom in on the No Trespassing sign and see the words "Alaska Railroad" and that narrowed it down quickly. It is Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel in Whittier, Alaska, I believe. The P... G... in weluvbikn's hint is Portage Glacier.
Nope. Pants, I don't know if you've been here but I know from a trip report that you camped less than 25 miles away as the crow flies. I looked up how to say that, and it seems the most correct term. But crows do not necessary fly straight and are known to circle their nests.
This one may be too hard as I wasn't sure how many people go through this way. I just looked it up and it is not even listed on MotorcycleRoads. I originally found it on a Mad Maps route when we did our 1st overnight bike trip on the VTX, so I know it's at least known as a motorcycle road. Since this was before we rode LD, this is not that far from our home in Hopkinsville KY. Avoiding Interstates entirely it is about 150 miles.Here's the new place. All three of these shots are from the same exact spot. It's not very popular as I've stopped here at least four times on three different bikes and have never seen anyone else in the parking lot. It's a nice little ride through an area on the way to other more popular locations.
