Nice writeup. Did you have to use your extra fuel can or was that for cooking?

the jug was for petrol, and never used it, but it would had came in handy when i did that 150 mile strecth and found out in between the gas station there was out of service, thats about the only time i really needed it, after that i just kept it fill up in case.

more pics of the pioneer park will be posted after the story.

after checking out the place i return back to site, and got some good rest for tomorrow..Arctic Circle !!


**SIGH.
good morning nuttynu !
i woke up hmm maybe around 7am, look at the Harley guy behind me and shoot he is already gone to the arctic circle (not that i wanted to go with him but..)
yeah, so anyways i get the tent down and pack all my gear onto the awesome CBR..hmmk should i cook? nope, didnt want to eat can food, so after leaving the site . i headed down to Denny's. it is the most northern Denny's.

got some good ole breakfest and drink there.

yack yack 2wheel conversation going on behind me. so i turn and 3 gentlemen sits, i ask them where they are riding from, and they said.. i forgot, but it was from the lower 48s states. they were also heading to the Arctic Circle.. and i think they might also was heading to the top; Prudhoe bay.

nice chat and on my way. the toughest part of the trip ..
i head to the last gas stop in fairbanks , top of my bike and also yes this time filled up my extra 1 gal gas jug, grab a few extra drinks and threw them into my saddlebags.

i stop and think and ask myself.." hmm dude am i really wantting to do this? ride in gravel dirt to the Arctic circle..shoot should i just turn back ...hm think think"

HECK no, i am doing this ride no matter what stops me. its my dream . and all that mind talk was left behind. time is around 8 ish AM by now and on the Steese highway i go.. ride ride:cruising:
