Figured Hubby needed some recognition for his photographic skills. The ferry ride will be a nice break. :ohyea:
Some day, your dreams will come true. Just keep putting it out there.
Glad your enjoying the trip!:)
Glad you finally got to meet Hubby! :D
We're going on the ferry next. Will be a good time to put my feet up for a while. :coffee:
Thats the truth for sure! :thumbup:
Happy your enjoying the ride. :doorag:
There are many other wonders in our great country that are out there. This is only a small slice of the pie.
Happy you are enjoying the pictures! ;)
Glad you got to meet Draboo and his wife. We met them on our journey in 2009 in Lynnwood, WA and had a great, though short, visit. Enjoy your journey...it will be one you can relive in years to come. Ride safe, always.
You guys ride in style. We had everything packed, including a laptop, in 2 GIVI saddlebags and the trunk of our 2008 GS SE5!

This is where we will be for the next three days on our way up to Haines, Alaska. Going to have a couple days R & R. Bad news is, there is no cell service so will have to save up all our pictures till we are up in Alaska.
Thank you all for such wonderful support! Hoping to get some pictures of Orca for Y'all...
I hope you enjoy smooth sailing. I'm looking forward to your pictures of the voyage.
Watch out for those trucks and flying gravel. It can be real painful when the trucks fly by.
+1 And be wary of riding on the gravel in general. Two friends of mine, brothers, did an Alaska ride two years ago on their Spyders after attending the LA owners event. One lost control on the loose gravel (and poor road conditions) and went off the road. He was really banged up and the Spyder was wrecked. He had to be airlifted to a hospital after he was picked up by a passing motorist and driven to the closest town.
Yazz,
Love the pics and information. If you are going to be coming thru Cuba on your return trip let me know and I will try to ride down and spend a few hours with you. Be safe, have fun and enjoy.
The Alcan Highway can be dangerous if the rider is not careful. It is mostly paved now and you only run into gravel sections where the road is being repaired. There is not much traffic on the road where you will be--we saw a car about every 20 minutes in that section last July. You should be all right on your trip.
All that Cuba stuff can drop to the back pages - this needs to stay at the top of the stack!!!! :chat:
:agree: here it comes.
we were all talking about this thread the other day here in Los Angeles. Faran had been checking it out too, and we were talking about your riding through the snow. I'm gonna remember the tip about looking for the drops of rain in the puddles.
Been checking on your Thread everyday. Thanks for sharing with us.
Be watching and reading. Have fun :2thumbs:
Yazz, We envey the both of you. We didn't get a chance to meet you in Cuba but we saw your ride several times. Wishing you both the best in your travels. Keep the pics coming. We wish we were right there with ya. :2thumbs:. :popcorn: We will be waiting! JC
Yazz, every time I've been on a ferry, they put me first on, first off. Did they make you wait with the cars, or motorcycles???
We had great sailing! The further north we came the better the weather. :D
We have The Mile Post. When a semi comes by, they recommend stopping you bike and hunkering behind it. Think Spydee will have great proctection that way... ;)
Hope your friends is mended up now. Learned how slippery and treacherous gravel can be going through the construction zone. Never fly faster than your Guardian Angles. :doorag:
Think we will be high-tailing it back home. Looking forward to meeting you again next year! :thumbup:
On the ferry, more than one person said 'the Haines Highway through Canada has lots of frost heaves. Watch your speed.' Going to take their advice as practice for the Alcan. :)
Thanks for the bump! :D
Y'all are too good! :2thumbs:
Think the invisible rain is a Northwestern thing? Maybe not? Glad y'all are enjoying the trip! :D
We're having a hoot! Glad you're on the trip with us! :clap:
It was great meeting y'all too! Maybe you can use our picture of all of us somehow? Going to keep a stink-eye on Jeff's rear tire. Spooky scary!! Only lost one dollar on the ferry. It was for a good cause. :roflblack:
Some fashion diva's helped me pick out that hat! It has many good memories and gathering more along the way. :2thumbs:
Thanks for taking the time to post on your great journey. I enjoy the updates. Have a safe trip. :clap:
BUMP! To top of the stack this thread goes! I'm in awe just reading this, so I'm not gonna say much of anything! I want to live vicariously through their eyes!
Ride on, Y'all! :bowdown:
Glad to hear your Ferry ride was a good one. Happy to hear your weather is
better! :clap: I really look forward to checking in here every night to see how
your trip is going! :popcorn: It's fun living this trip through you!!! Today I
was stopped at a store and someone stopped me to talk about my :spyder2:.
They are considering purchasing one and wanted to know all about the bike
and how it was to travel long distances on it. As an new owner of only about
8 weeks, I told them I didn't have too much experience with that but gave
them the Spyder Lovers site and told them to check it out and that we had
one member doing an Alaska trip as well as other members traveling all
over the country! Who knows, :dontknow: maybe we will see that couple at
a Spyderfest some day! :yes: :yes: :yes:
