Hi List: Listening to a guy play the guitar and harmonica and sing in a garage
converted to hangout/kitchen/TV room/laundry/bathroom and shower attached to
the log cabin with rooms at the North Woods Lodge/Hostel/Campgrounds in
Fairbanks, AK. Has public phone and free internet via webtv. Nice vibes. A
campfire outside struggling to burn in a sunshiny light rain. Sixty indians
from south of Tok were camping (tents, not tepees) here when I arrived
yesterday. It was a bit crowded, but they departed today and all is tranquil
again. Hosed off the incredible filth accumulated during the Deadhorse run on
the Dalton Highway. Will install the new Dunlop Trail Max D-604 radial front
tire and tube tomorrow. Bought new steel sprockets from the local Kawi shop.
Looking for a DID Gold X-ring chain to go with the sprockets. Critter now has
16,574 miles on the clock. Signed up to the new and growing KLR forum at:
www.advrider.com . Looking for Mariola to ride in, if she got my message left
at three locations on the road riding down the Dalton to Fairbanks. She is only
one day behind me. Looking forward to rubbing noses, Eskimoe style, with her. I
read some messages on the list indicating some of you were initially skeptical
and are surprised and respectful of my making this tour happen, as I said I
would. Thanks for the kind words. Fireball had it right, when he met Punky and
I and reported that we'd probably succeed. Fireball, where are you? Riding and
aware of the trees and scenery whizzing by at 80 mph, I hope. I have come to
enjoy the adventurous feeling of, not just riding from one place to another,
but twisting the throttle a bit more than a more prudent rider would. It sure
makes it more fun with a little risky riding and Critter has been up to it. The
adrenalin high is exhilerating. Another shity day in paradise. Wonder what the
rich folks are doing? Went to town today and rode Critter back with a tire and
a load of groceries on top of the tail box. A really topheavy adventurous ride
back to the lodge. Hope you guys enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy doing
it. Ha ha. Bye for now, until next time.
