| 11th August 2009 Janine | Your Fantastic Trip - From: Going outside... Hi Mike: We met in Dawson at the campground where the four of us were staying. Wendy and I really enjoyed visiting with you. When I got home, I was able to find your blog and read about your amazing adventure. I am sorry the bike repairs just didn't work out the way you wanted them to do. Your bike trip really is an accomplishment. It might have taken a different turn at the end, but you saw a huge amount of beautiful country and met some great people. Your trip is an inspiration to me and I hope one day to do even a fraction of what you have achieved. I think about your journey when I am out riding on my motorcycle. Our trip ended well. We saw Inuvik/Tuktoyaktuk, Norman Well, and Yellowknife and then flew back home. Our luck held and we had good weather the whole time. It was a pleasure to have met you. Well done!!! Regards, Janine |

| 6th August 2009 Jeffer | Conflagrations - From: Making progress Howdy Mike, This is the first time I checked out your blog and man what an adventure. Probably not exactly what you had in mind but none the less it will make for some good memories. Thats really a bummer bout the sale of the bike. I would have thought it would come through fine seeing as how it was a red one. Anybody who rides a KLR knows that they are the best/fastest. So when ya comming back? Ya gonna give up on KLR's or ? Carry on my friend the "son" is shining behind the clouds! Jeffer |
| 6th August 2009 trish | - From: Making progress hey mikey! sorry to see that things didnīt work out for you, but at least you got to spend some time exploring alaska, right? and the emmertīs sound awesome, so youīre not stuck at some cheap motel or anything. also, look on the bright side: you get to spend more time with ME now!! :) maybe thatīs not a bright side, weīll find out. take care and safe travels! |
| 5th August 2009 Tom | Should have kept the Honda CBR? - From: Making progress Wow,what an adventure, huh Mike! I was quite excited for you for your trip; but it looks like Murphy came along and stayed! I couldn't help but compare your seemingly effortless (mechanically) trip last summer and this Alaska jaunt. If you played golf I would say you deserve a Mulligan (if you don't play the game, its a do over) but knowing you, you are already counting the good things that happened and stating all in all not a bad outing. And it it a heck of a lot better than the work a day routine. the rest of us are in. Thanks for sharing your trek with me even though I cringed with each new mechanical challenge.... Tom |

| 28th July 2008 shawn | www.blackhillstravelblog.com - From: Mt Rushmore, twisties, and almost over the fun limit... The Black Hills are infamous for their great biking roads. No wonder 500,000 bikers show up in August every year. Great blog but better photos! |
| 24th July 2008 Mom | - From: Exeland, Wisconsin Way to play The Game, Mike. :-) You're certainly a chip off the mother block in that department. |
| 19th July 2008 dad | blog writings - From: Minneapolis, Minnesota Mike After being too busy driving tractor for 4 days I finally caught up on all your travels. Very interesting writings and pictures. I especially like the self-photo cruising at 60 mph. Looking at the Mt. Rushmore photos I noticed some of those guys had pretty big noses. (Maybe they are related to the Hershbergers!!) Hope your trip continues to go well and I pray for your safety every day as I cruise thru the alfalfa field in the john deere at 5.3 mph. Take care Dad |
