Nebraska
to Alaska 
In the summer of 2000, Russ Cusick and I decided to ride our motorcycles from Omaha, Nebraska, up the Al-Can Highway (now known as the Alaska Highway) to Alaska and back to Nebraska. On the afternoon of the twenty-first of July, with tents and gas cans strapped to our bikes, Russ and I set out from the power plant that we work at. Russ was riding his new Honda Shadow Spirit 1100, and I was on my 1997 Honda Valkyrie. Over the next twenty days, we covered just over 8,000 miles of roads, through six states and three provinces. In the pages linked below, I have attempted to journal our adventure in photographs and words. The final link is a list of our gas stops with the odometer readings from my bike, which may be useful to someone planning a similar trip. Enjoy....
