Re: BMW GS Riders
I was in Alaska for 2 months last summer and I got a loan of an 1100GS for a week - rode it from fairbanks (in the middle) to deadhorse (right up north) about 300 miles inside the arctic circle - pretty much as far as you can go by road there.
What alaskans call roads are frankly laughable by our standards - even ther good ones - due to yearly permafrost damage and the fact they hate paying tax. The last 200 miles or so were pretty much dirt track. Didn't get so much as a sore bum on the GS -awesome bike when its in its element.
Did I mention they make great beer out there too?
got about half a million pics of the trip if anyone's interested
