It's a great day when Dave releases a video! Thanks for taking us along! 😃
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video so far just started watching
Agreed. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
He's not to famous to answer comments yet, that's awesome! Most people don't answer comments 👍
I try to answer as many as I can. I'm actually in a truckstop parking lot right now using their wifi to answer comments
I’m sure you realize that many of your viewers are riding along in our imagination, as we are too old, sick or dying. Our last chance to see this amazing country! Thank you! 😊
I agree, but I think broke should be in there somewhere lol
@@davidr1777 Forgot. True. Social security doesn’t go far.
@@davidr1777 Nailed it. All of the above, plus poor and living on disability. Yet there's always something to be grateful for, if you're willing to look for it.
WELL SAID!!!!😅😅😁🤗🤗
And at least One of us is going thru Phy. Therapy, nursing a broken ankle ( motorcycle ). 2-1/2 months and counting . . .

Thank you for taking us with you on the journey and always trying your best to remind us that there’s a big world out there to explore.
My wife and I have started watching Betting on Alaska and may I say, you and Brooke did a fantastic job raising that young man. The world needs more young people with their heads on straight! Oh...also enjoying your vids too...
What he said. Except for the wife part.
OMGoodness, I just realized who you've always reminded me of, Dave! It's Dick Proenneke! I fell in love with Alaska because of him and at times you sound just like him! Anyway, I appreciate all that you, Brooke, and now Mick are sharing! Blessings to all of your family!
Great video something about taking a bike trip by yourself even for a couple days is so cathartic brings peace to the soul
Hi Dave.. Thank you for sharing your Road Trip.. What a great way to find some peace and set priorities in order..!
I just sighed all the way through. I'm grateful for you taking me to places I will never get to see.
Dave, you and your wife have kept me motivated for a while now, glad to see one of you kids taking up the same lifestyle. Much love from another Believer from down Kentucky way!
Man of the same heart, nothing gives you the sense of freedom like being out on a bike, I have had a bike from when I was 15 yrs old and I am 70 yrs old next weekend and still ride a bike, many thanks for sharing, cheers Ian from England
Right on
Love this! Such beautiful scenery! Please don't take this wrong, but I had to chuckle when you said you forgot the cover for the Go-pro because it reminded me of Mick forgetting his sleeping bag on his camping adventure last week! Just too cute! Y'all are such an amazing family & we are thankful to be brought along for your adventures! God bless!!!
As a motorcyclist myself, please make more of these. I could listen to you explain Alaskan routes all day.
OMG! This video brought back so many memories! In 2010, 3 of us started in Glen Allen , self supported, on our touring bicycles and rode to the Denali Hwy, rode the Hwy, and went on to Denali. We then rode the 95 miles to the the back of Denali National Park and camped at Wonder Lake. It was one of the most incredible 2 weeks of my life! The scenery! The wildlife! Like you said, you can’t do it justice with a camera! Absolutely awesome! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for taking me on this trip with you. What a beautiful place. I love watching Mickey's channel, and of course Brooke's too.
What a nice little adventure. As a lifelong fan of motorcycling (who also took a break of sorts when becoming a parent), this was especially engaging. I'm glad you went on the trip. What you said about "may be next time, may be never" is true. There are things I took for granted earlier in life, thinking I'd have the opportunity to do them later, but that's not always the case. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and have fun!
Thanks
Great road trip, Dave!! Thanks for taking us along🤩
❤😊thanks for taking us along with, awesome view
Gee Whiz! You can sure tell that you and Mick are cut from the same cloth! He looks a lot like his dad! Thanks for taking us along to Denali!
Awesome trip, thankyou Dave for sharing your adventure. Yourself, Brook and now Mick are all inspirational. May our Good Lord bless and keep you all safe 🙏🏽❤
Hi Dave, I make the trip to the Denali Highway every year. I usually take 3-4 days across from the Cantwell side, I take my time to camp and fish. Then, I go the Glenn Highway to Wasilla and back home to Willow. The lodge in Paxton was called the Paxon Lodge. I worked there as the dishwasher many years ago and the family that owned it were a crazy bunch, always arguing, lol. It was nice to see you making this trip, it is one of the no.1 areas to go. Great hunting as well. Thanks for sharing.
U and the girl in the woods are awesome dont ever stop making videos, i enjoy them very much
Loved this video! Your voice is so calming! Your videos so remind me of my time in Alaska as a kid! It was rough roads in the late 50’s early 60’s! But I still love the Land of the Midnight Sun! It was great seeing Brooke and your son. Thank you! God bless y’all ❤️
People who don't ride just don't know what they're missing. Glad you're getting back out and enjoying having the breeze on the knees.
Traveling for me these days is not an option, so I resort to fascinating views from you guys to fill that void. Thank you.
Adventure bikes and dual sports are so dang fun! Thanks for taking us along!
anytime
Wow! Quite the ride! Thank you so much for taking us along. Something I won’t do but hopefully my grandson and his girlfriend will enjoy on their motorcycles. Thank you
This is such a random treat, Dave! Looks like an amazing ride, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for ride absolutely beautiful.
Wow! What an awesome mini vacation/ motorcycle drive!!
Love your life Dave!!
Oh yeah... Already sub'd to Mickey's channel, he's a good kid!
I never realized until viewing recent Alaska Videos that the insects are so thick, and big. Can put a damper on the fun.
I absolutely LOVED the Denali Hi Way. My most favorite place on Earth in the 16 years I lived there. I have never seen anything so impressive, and now I'm in north western MT, and that still holds true.
Aww tat was awesome, especially the scenery yes...thanks Dave for riding with you..be safe 😀wow tat was awesome 👌
Loved the trip back through memory lane around Delta Junction Dave, I'm currently running a Kawasaki KLR 650 myself. As I sit here at my desk watching your video while making a 6figure income working for the railroad and pullinga 24hr shift, I can't help but feel envious jealous sad and happy all at the same time. Some days I wish I could just chuck it all and just go out wander around and be totally free but then I think, man I've built 1 hell of a retirement for myself and now I'm in a position where I'm only working 15days a month so I've set myself up with a lot more me time to chase my dreams although it may only be 9days at a time, it took me awhileto get to this place in my life. Keep living your dreams and may God continue to bless you and Brooke with good health and many more years of adventures. Hope to run into you both sometime whether it be in Alaska or back in Michigan, would love to share a campfire with you both.
A friend of mine took that trip twice! Drove his BMW all the way from ohio to Denali! He has 450,000 miles on that thing and has never washed it! Crazy bastard he is! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks. That was a great trip for those of us who won't get to see it any other way. It was good to see Brooke and Mick, too
Dave, thank you for sharing this trip! My wife and I went to Alaska last year. After spending a week on the Kenai peninsula, we drove up to Fairbanks and spent a few days on the Chena river. From there we took the same road you came back on, through Paxson, and stayed at the Lake Louise lodge before heading back to Anchorage. As I was watching the video, I kept telling my wife “I remember that spot!”
You are so fortunate to be able to spend so much time in Alaska, and thank you again for sharing.
Very awesome scenery Dave! I seriously wanted to see what that garbage omelette looked like. Definitely sounds like something I’d like. Thanks for bringing us along! Stay awesome!❤️
Man that was radical so amazing!! My mother passed in 2018 she did that trip from Michigan in a sm motorhome I’m glad she did what an adventure that was for her ♥️ thank you Dave 🙋♀️
Love this, thank you, Dave. I'm a 71 yr old gal that started riding motorcycle at 38 and have put about 80K miles in the saddle enjoying God's beauty. Your video got me to imagining the smells, bugs, changing temps, and especially the sights - all the blessings of motorcycling. Enjoy all the family's videos so much!
Another thing you can do when you get Older Dave, ... is hide your own Easter Eggs. Hahaha Excellent video. Thanks.
Dave, you & Brooke make me miss Alaska so much ❣️ Carry on Son. I am having adventures again through you & Brooke ❣️
Thanks for taking us along on the ride, I certainly enjoyed it. You are right about the camera not seeing what you see with your own two eyes.
Always a treat to see the mountain views. (LOL ... I was just thinking about you needing "Apollo-Style" backup systems being so remote :) And, yup, I've definitely been to scenic places that are only truly appreciated in person. Happy for you, Dave! Thanks for sharing ... God Bless you, Brother
What a Cool trip. Thanks for bringing us along. Gorgeous scenery. Great to see the three of you together. Thanks again! 🎉
The veiws from a bike in alaska are hard to beat on a nice day!
Such a happy momma. Beautiful family man. Hope you enjoy the rest of the summer!
The most into the area than ever...such a beautiful nature all around 🎉
Just awesome, Dave. Can't put a price on lunch with family, no matter the roadtrip required! Love it.
Fun🎉🎉🎉🎉great to see son and Brooke too!!! Thanks friends
Thank you
Wow, I didn't even know there was a Denali Highway! Breathtaking sun coming through the mountains!
Three Whiples rendezvous for a garbage omelet but enjoy burritos as their family meal. 😋 This was fun 👍🥰🥳 🏍
Beautiful trip!! I wish i could motorize my wheelchair and hit the road!! Thanks for the vid, lots of memories!!
Loved to see your son following in the family tradition and beginning his own homestead adventure! Brooke was hilarious photo bombing your video😂
GOOD 👋 DAY 🐉 MATE! Gorgeous Dave, Thank-you For the Wonderful Journey. Safe Travels!
Thanks for the ride haven’t been to Alaska in two years it’s beautiful myself I live in western Maine still beautiful have a great day
Dave , youre always a pleaaure to listen to. I guess its your voice , you have a natural "story telling voice" I enjoyed the adventure and looking forward to the next one.
Thanks for listening
These videos are such a blessing. I watch them before bed and feel relaxed
Totally agree Dave, the drive between Paxson and Delta Junction is the prettiest drive in Alaska...I have done it many, many times...in cars, RV and on my motorcycles. It never gets old! Great trip!
I thoroughly enjoyed your mini trip I been watching you, Brooke, and Mick. So I can see how others live and enjoy the great outdoors. Thank you for sharing this adventure. Stay safe, warm/cool, and Blessings.
Love the trip! Thanks for taking us along.
After retiring I took a cruise to Alaska, my first (and only) cruise because I don't ride a motorcycle or a bike and I needed to see how big it was in the only way I could while still alive and upright (I'm 78). It was evcerything I hoped it would be. But I have been fans of you and Brook for a couple of years now and following your adventures and daily lives is greatly entertaining and very satisfying. Keep on keepin on!
I live in AUS and swear by it for its beautiful landscape but damn now i know why everyone loves America, at least these beautiful untainted parts.
Awesome! Thanks for jumping on your bike and taking us with you! I love a spur of the moment road-trip! Blessings on you and the family! Adventures, safety and joy! 👍
Awe...so happy to hear your son now has his own YT channel. I really enjoy your channel as well as your wife Brooke's channel. I'll definitely subscribe and watch your son's adventures as he builds his own cabin in the woods.
Great video - I did the Alaska Highway run in 2009 on my 650 Suzuki VStrom. Will never forget the scenery and people in the North!
nice!
Hi Dave,
I am your sons neighbor although I am about a mile away. One day when I see him I will stop by and have a chat with him.
Loved the ride. Used to ride back in the '70s KZ1000 touring bike. Rode one day from Winnemucca, Nevada to Edgemont, South Dakota. Yeppers tired butt is a understatement.😁😁
Hi Dave,
You may want to get a hold of Mick. I left him some visqueen to cover his floor with yesterday. I am fearful that if we get heavy rains that mold will grow under his floor or warp it .
Awesome, man, thank you for sharing. I have a TDM 900 myself, but currently waiting for my kids to grow up, before going on it again, so your story really resonated with me! Loved the footage, great adventure.
thanks
Dave...I just want to tell you I love you. Thank you for all your videos. I wish you and your family every blessing God has to offer.
Thanks for taking us along, beautiful 😍
Dave, this was one of your best! Thanks so much.
Loved this! TY for taking us along!! 🥾🥾😎
Nice Vlog as always! Ty for taking me along.
I loved your comment about losing your mind as a parent if your teenager took off on a 1000mile moto trip! I've done a lot of riding and ditched my bike as soon as we had kids....too many close calls with cars that didn't see me. Glad you were wearing dayglow colors and got back safe. Quite a nice ride you shared with us. Be well!
Great trip! Thanks for taking us along!
These road trip videos are some of my favorites. That was cool ride!
Glad you like them!
Thanks Dave for sharing your video. You make them cool and interesting and one day want to visit Alaska. I loved when you three met up … how fun!
Thanks for the road trip! And we are loving watching Mick’s adventures!
Thank you for another wonderful video Dave!
Another great video. Thanks Dave!
Those mountains are absolutely beautiful ❤❤
Beautiful, thank you for taking us along. Blessings.
Yes, seize the day. Take it in as you go. Get up and go. Life is short. Good video.
Just found your boys channel!! Gonna be a fun ride watching him grow!! Wish I grew up like he did.. but, I'm making the best of what cards I was dealt!!!
I'm not surprised you ride a KLR650 with Tusk gear. Simple, reliable, well built stuff. Safe travels from a fellow Michigan biker and future cabin builder.
Dave, everything about this video was fantastic! Thank you!!
Loved tagging along! Lots of interesting things and gorgeous views! Hurry up and make another video!
Thank you for taking us along on the Denali. Magnificent.
I love it when a video drops on this channel. It always brightens my day.
Thanks for filming this. It was fabulous to see all the beauty there.
Thanks for taking us along David. Awesome video, later.
That was nice, thanks for taking us with you.
Thank you so much Dave! I live in the north western part Washington State and have been thinking of drive up to Alaska for awhile now. After hearing what you said at the end of the video about how we put things off and end up never doing it hit me pretty hard. Thanks for that.
I live in Vancouver BC it took me 20 years to get round to it The ferry is kind of expensive but it’s pretty cool trip as well
So cool getting to see Alaska this way. Thank you!
Some of your best content Dave. Well done!!
Beautiful views, thank you for taking us along.
Thank you for bringing us along your awesome adventure!
Awesome views! Thx for showing us
That was a beautiful ride. Thanks for bringing us!
Incredible landscapes Dave. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Thanks for taking us along, Dave!
