https://www.2wheels2alaska.com/ Very nice Alaska Motorcycle Report, ridden for a charity. Same BMW as mine, F650GS Twin.

Thanks, Papa Chuy.

Damn, I could read Alaska Ride Reports all day. That fellow had some very interesting things to say about

making the trek. We might discuss it further in DV, eh? ...if I can catch you sober for a few minutes.

Amigo Michael: What part of "Niehart's coming to Death Valley Daze" don't you understand? No one'll be sober around Dave!!

Greeting My Fellow Alaska FJR Travelers: Just received e-mail from the Alaska Marine Highway that they'll mail you a DVD showing all that the AK Ferry Service offers. Call them at 1-800-642-0066 or e-mail them at Sea News by clicking "Contact Us" at https://www.ferryalaska.com If you decide to make one leg on the ferry, this DVD shows you all the Alaska information!

"It's 2010, and the new year welcomes new beginnings and resolutions. This year, resolve to start planning now for your vacation with the Alaska Marine Highway.

Want to see for yourself what traveling on Alaska's ferry system is really like? Request our FREE DVD and get a glimpse of the adventures on the Alaska Marine Highway — an All-American Road. The disc features an overview of the casual and relaxed travel on the ferry, a look at routes and destinations, a quick tour of our vessels and accommodations and highlights of the onboard amenities.

You'll also see some of the charming communities on coastal waters and find out what amazing wildlife you'll likely see on your trip (think whales, eagles and more). And you'll see how easy it is to bring a car or RV along — or even your pet.

One of the many things that make the Alaska Marine Highway unique is that its routes aren't limited to day-trips. Passengers often travel long distances and spend one or more nights onboard a ship.

Most of the Alaska Marine Highway vessels offer basic but comfortable cabins that sleep two to four passengers, some with complete bathrooms. These private cabins sell out quickly, so it's important to reserve them early. Many public areas also serve as sleeping space for those traveling without a cabin. Comfortable reclining chairs are found aboard all vessels, and passengers can also roll out a sleeping bag in one of the heated solariums for the night. Or, for a truly original Alaska experience, pitch a tent on the deck and sleep under the stars.
