Our 2008 tour lasted four weeks and covered 10,200 km. Our object was to ride every paved highway in Alaska (at least those we could access). Although we probably fell a bit short of our goal we made up for it by riding the unpaved portions of the Alcan. The weather was for the most part "Alaskan" (as we kept telling ourselves: "we are not here for the weather"). This resulted in the conversion of our CAMPING-motel tour to a MOTEL-camping tour. In some places we had the drizzlies and the grizzlies!
