After another excellent trip to Alaska this June, I’ve been persuaded that it’s too good a trip not to repeat in 2024 so it's on again.
The 2023 trip report along with a load of pictures is here.
It's a road trip and will be on rental bikes. Some of the roads can get a little rough and there are some sections of hard packed dirt but they are easy and no problem.
The trip will start in Anchorage on Sunday 28th July 2024 and finishes on Friday 9th August 2024 in Anchorage and the highlights of the trip include:
• Seward
• Wittier Tunnel and Turnagain Arm
• Talkeetna
• Mount Denali and Denali Highway
• Fairbanks
• Arctic Circle on the Dalton Highway
• Chena Hot Springs
• Chicken Alaska
• Top of the World Highway
• Dawson City and Dredge number 4
• Valdez
• Glenn Highway and Matanuska Glacier
• Haines Pass
The route is designed to show you the best of Alaska and takes in many of the must see places in the staggering part of the world.
The trip will be on rental bikes so you fly in, collect your bike, ride with me for 13 days and then drop your bike off at the end of the trip. All motels are pre booked and you pay for these as well as your food, drinks etc as you go. Some motels require payment upfront but you'll get a full run down of where, how much etc etc.Please remember that the route is planned and I'm guiding the trip so I take all worry out of the organisation and as anyone will tell you who has been on my trips, I'm pretty laid back, know all the places to stop and encourage you to relax and enjoy the wonderful places we are in.
The bikes available are BMW R1250GS's, F850GS's and BMW F750GS’s so there is an option for everyone. All are equipped with metal panniers and a top box if required. Tyres on the bikes are Dunlop Trailmax Missions which cope with everything and do the job really well
The trip is ideal for pillions as well as just single riders.
The mileage is around 2700 total with our daily average mileage is about 220 which is very easy up there as there is very little traffic. We also have a great day off in Dawson City which is a fantastic place. The relatively low mileage gives us plenty of time to explore where we are and gives time for plenty of stops to take in everything around us.
Alaska is a truly epic place to ride and experience and it's unlike anywhere you will have been before. One minute you'll be looking at a glacier amongst the snow capped mountains, then you may see a bear wandering along the roadside, a moose feeding in lake and then see Salmon return to spawn in Valdez.
Flights are in and out of Anchorage and we use a great route via Frankfurt which couldn't be easier.
Please message me if you want full details of this great trip.
