Default Some "ride Alaska" pics for ya!

Here is what I posted as a ride report on the local AK forum that alot of local Alaskan riders communicate through. Thought you guys might enjoy.

Start of the ride. Wednesday night ride to Hatchers pass. Pretty cool- I am sure Ethmc will post more!






Not much time for takin' pics- hauling ass mostly. Pretty spirited for a couple old bikes. Ethmc had pretty good style on the old bike. Nigel got some pointers.

I rode hard as I could two up- it was a great ride, great group of guys, fun fun until the Z1 died a bit later- but it really didn't "strand" us- it chose the easiest possibe scenario to break down. Damn, that bike is even good to us when it does give up the ghost! Turns out it dropped a valve, contacted the spark plug at some point upon autopsy
