Incredible images from the wilderness! We only get to see stuff like that on the Discovery Channel here in NY. 115 miles without another car?! Long Island is only 110 miles long!

I'm planning to visit Alaska in 2013, looks like I'll enjoy it. A Buell is just a Sportie on steroids.

Looks like an incredible ride! Great pics. Just picked my first Buell on Saturday. Got the 1125 though, not sure it's the bike I'd choose from the garage for that kind of ride.
