Editorial Reviews

"Alaska Prudhoe Bay Highway" is the 5th in my multi episode "Burro Has Three Wheels" series, tracing the roads of North, Central and South America. Finishing the ride from Portland, Oregon to Tierra del Fuego in 2006, the first four episodes in my adventure rider DVD series (Mexico, Central America, Colombia / Ecuador & Peru, Chile, Argentina) were produced and simply titled "Burro Has Three Wheels". In June of 2007, I set out to finish my top to the bottom ride of the world, a road trip that would take me to Deadhorse / Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, as far north in the world as one can drive. "Alaska Prudhoe Bay Highway" provides viewers a preview to a journey through the northwestern portions of Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, Yukon Territory and Alaska. This time I am not traveling alone. My old friend Tom and his companion Linda have asked to accompany me. Tom has made the trip before but Linda had never been on a motorcycle for more than two hours before departing. To top that...they're riding two up on a KLR 650. Highways include; US 101 on the Washington Coast, Canada Hwy 1 on Vancouver Island, BC from Victoria, BC to Port Hardy, BC, The Inland Passage along the BC coast, Canada Hwy 16 from Prince Rupert, BC to Kitwanga, BC, Canada Hwy 37 (Stewart-Cassiar) to the junction of Canada Hwy 1 near Watson Lake, YT, Canada Hwy 1 (Alaska Hwy) to the US border, US Hwy 2 to Fairbanks, AK and finally AK Hwy 11 (Dalton Hwy-The Haul Road) to Deadhorse / Prudhoe Bay, AK. Watching this movie should bring you plenty of smiles, but don't expect a Hollywood style production. No corporate sponsors provided the means for this adventure therefore; this film does not have any hidden agendas. It is simply the reality of three riders traveling together and what they experience. Sit back and enjoy an adventure of a lifetime that includes; weather, road conditions, local people and a terrific sound track. Youtube trailer..search Alaska Prudhoe Bay Highway

This review is from: Alaska Prudhoe Bay Highway Driving Motorcycle Travel Touring Books & DVD Series with Gary Smith BMW Ural Sidecar Susuki Klr650 Yamaha Honda (DVD)

Gary Smith has given us an inspiring video account of his trip from Oregon through BC and the Yukon to Alaska, and north to Prudhoe Bay including great footage on the Haul Road. He travels solo in a Ural sidecar rig, with companions riding 2 up on a KLR650. The photography is by Gary, so it's not Hollywood but it's definitely the real thing and it's good. In addition to great road footage, Gary includes entertaining interviews with many of the folks he meets along the way. The soundtrack includes a good variety of excellent blues, too. I've watched my copy a number of times, and I like it a lot. Buy it -- you won't be disappointed.
