What a trip of a lifetime. 9862 miles and 3 weeks on the greatest machine ever made. Ran flawlessly and all I need now are new front fork seals and new tires. Those forks took a beating. Great to be home and I had a fantastic time. Another one off the bucket list  One picture that makes me proud to be an American is one I took at Denali https://www.travelblog.org/Photos/8894361

My Blog is updated with others also https://www.travelblog.org/Bloggers/Wizzard8955/

It was fun reading your blog posts.  I'm sure you're feeling some withdrawals, but I'd bet it's nice coming home to a wife that let you go galavanting off North on a big, beautiful Valkyrie!  Congrats on the trip!   cooldude

That's such a cool trip! Happy for you guys and that you had no problems. A friend of ours just arrived there yesterday and said it's unbelievable.  It is always nice to get home and sleep in your own bed.  Congrats on the trip.
