We flew from Japan to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska in mid-June 2023 to ride the Dalton Highway to Fairbanks. The route stretches through 500 miles of Alaskan wilderness, with only one settlement at the midway point and a couple smaller camps closer to Fairbanks. We carried all of the food we needed for 10 days of riding - by far the most we'd ever had on our bikes!

We were blown away by the scenery and wildlife in the Arctic Circle, and while mosquitoes put a damper on our spirits during the second half of the ride, it was definitely an unforgettable experience!
