Deadhorse, Alaska to Montreal, Quebec, Canada: Photos 21 to 34

With near perfect timing as soon as I had finished, my travelblog crashed. I have now finally got round to fixing it and reposted it. Sorry for the delay. By way of an added bonus here are some photos covering my travels across Alaska and Canada in August and September.

Alain and I rode south from Fairbanks down to a very damp Blue Grass music festival in Talkeetna. Weather and music quite disappointing. Lots and lots and lots of rain listening to ropey Eagles covers. Not quite the Northern Exposure counter-culture experience I had been hoping for. Still we have been really lucky with weather all July in Alaska so guess we had to get wet at some point. Committed the cardinal sin of riding past Denali National Park. In cycle touring terms this is an almost unforgiveable heresy. Meant to be extremely beautiful place lots of mountains, trees, lakes, bears and other fun outdoor stuff. Another time perhaps. Could easily spend another month (or two) riding around Alaska

Had heard on the cyclist grapevine that in Anchorage there was a hostel run by an Argentinian couple, Sebastian and Marcella, who had cycled up from Argentina three years ago.
