Thanks for sharing your video. I went to the Arctic Circle from the Dempster highway but rode the Alaska Highway just as you did. It was great to see all the stops again and the beautiful North.
I'm on a world tour and will pass through NM in couple of weeks, before going for Mexico. Let me know if you like to have a beer or go for a ride.

Well done!

I and a pal tried to reach the Arctic Circle on motorbikes this year. But we were beaten by excessive flood waters at 66D 26.737M - just about 6 miles short of it!

This was a bit different to you, as we were trying to reach it in Asia.

My pal returned there later in the summer and got a mile or so further to then be beaten by deep soft mud - which was full of fresh tracks of wolves and bears!

Epic Tony ! what part of Asia ? I didn't see any wolves but lots of bear .... it made solo tent camping a real "thrill" ..

Mundo, Hi

Central and Eastern Russia. See Sibirsky Extreme

Our first attempt on the Circle is described in the Blog in July, Page 2 dated 5 July and Walter's solo in September, Page 2 dated 4 September (and that really WAS epic).

Good riding to you.
