Onwards to the Alaskan Highway and Beyond..................

Well... it's been over a week since last babbling. We've been a bit busy......riding, riding, riding........onwards from Grande Cache to the 'Alaska Highway' which starts in Fort St John... a milestone for us to remember. Crossing the border into the USA proved to be no problem and we continued riding the highway until it ended in Delta Junction. Throughout this time besides having a day off relaxing at Takhini Hot Springs just outside Whitehorse, we've seen our first Grizzly bear.....a female and two cubs about 18ft from us at the roadside.......close enough for us 'not to be there' but don't panic we were on our bikes with engines running, ready for the quick getaway should Mummy bear get aggravated. Anyway she allowed us and several other tourists who stopped in their cars to take a couple of photos, a fabulous experience to see them in the wild.

From there we rode to Fairbanks and got the bikes serviced and a couple of new tires before heading off for our next 'Mini Adventure'.....'The Dalton Highway'......and that's another story...
