Scott, congratulations!! I felt like I was reliving my trip of last June, except I did not do the daily miles you are doing! I just cannot comprehend how you did all those 900+ miles in 16 hours up the Alaska Highway, especially between Whitehorse and the state line!! Was there any construction/reconstruction on the Dalton Highway? That was the worst part for me on getting up to the Arctic Circle last year (all the mud and mushy calcium chloride)! Stay safe for the return trip!!

Hey Scott, you had some nasty miles to cover. Glad to hear nothing major happened. Last year one fella that stopped in here tipped his bike up there and finished the ride with a broken foot. Have a safe ride home and enjoy.

I checked your blog this a.m. and just a few minutes ago...can't believe how much you covered today. At that rate you ought to be back in Dallas in a couple days. It's really alright with us if you slow down...but we all wish we were in your shoes too.

Scott - C'mon man! You gotta update your blog and fill us in on the rest of your trip and give us more pics. I've been anxiously awaiting to hear more about it. Hook us up!

And congrats on completing your ride. I'm sure you are just relaxing since you got back and will fill us in real soon.
