Default Mississippi to Arctic Circle & Back

This last summer Mary and I rode up to the Arctic Circle and back with many detours and stops along the way.

You can see the entire Ride Report with over 1100 pictures at this link-

Mary has started going through all the video we recorded and making short Youtube vids of some of the highlights.

Below are the first 4 videos she has done. More will be coming every couple of weeks.

Good day.

Isn't it a shame that put up guardrails? Certainly spoils the picture takin'. I've ridden the Bearstooth and the Rode to the Sun when neither had guardrails - much more exciting!
I'm only guessing; but watching you videos and estimating your speeds, a three wheeler must have much more road stability that a two wheeler.
I've ridden through most of this country and in snow and I can tell you I wouldn't be doing your speeds on my scoot - especially when it's fully loaded.
All that being said - GREAT job!
Looking forward to seeing more!

Ride In Peace

Yeah, pics and view would be much nicer without the guardrails for sure.

HD (well, really it was Lehman) nailed the handling on the Tri-Glides. Super stable platform.

More vids coming over the next months.

Did the trip in 09 with two of my son's. Since they had to get back to work, we did the 9,000 mile trip in 14 days.

We broke speed limits in five states, 2 Provence's and one Territory.

Not much time to sight see but did stop long enough to get this picture.
