Welcome

This Blog will be used to track my travels during my motorcycle trip to Alaska. I will be Leaving Atlanta May 22nd, travel out west until I get to New Mexico. I will turn north and head up through Utah visiting a few national parks including Arches and Monument Valley. We will stop off in Salt Lake City then visit the Bonneville Salt Flats for some great photos. I will meet up with the rest of my travel mates in Seattle where the bikes will get new tires and fresh oil. The six of us will head further north into British Columbia to catch our ferry in Prince Rupert. After a couple of days on the ferry, we disembark in Haines Alaska, where we will begin a two week tour of all Alaska has to offer including Mt. McKinley in the Denali National Park. We will meet up with a large group of folks for the Dust to Dawson rally which travels from Anchorage to Dawson City in The Yukon. From there we begin riding south through Banff and then Montana. We plan on seeing as many National parks as we can along the way. As we hit the plain states, we will make time on the highways and get to Atlanta around the 4th of July.

After a couple of nights in Atlanta doing laundry and showering over and over, A few of us will start the Journey south to Key West Florida. We will spend one night there relaxing and taking pictures of the southern most point indicator. Then we head north and speed back to Atlanta where I will be able to park the bike for while.

This trip is planned for nine weeks on the road. Most night will be spent in campgrounds in a tent and some people's homes. Mainly to keep cost down. But sleeping outdoors while riding a motorcycle really makes the whole experience more of an accomplishment in my mind. A full outdoor experience.

Enjoy

A little about me..

Curtis Bonds Baker, born Aug. 3rd 1978 in Atlanta Georgia. Married to Angela Baker since October 2005. I have been a self employed Carpenter about for the past eight years.

I grew up riding and racing bicycles, feeling comfortable on two wheels led me to trying motorcycles. A friend taught let me ride his Honda Shadow and I became hooked. I then bought a 1991 BMW from another friend who was selling his and now I am currently riding my second motorcycle, a 2006 r1200 GS adventure.

I enjoy riding and traveling because of the feeling of freedom and total control. One of the best feelings while on a trip is waking up and know that I get to ride again.
