Funny you mention that. There was enough mud and we’re pretty sure that’s what did in his regulator. It was replaced and all is good. Thanks so much for your comment.
The rain helped keep the bugs down, especially the bigger ones. Great trip, glad you enjoyed it. When my wife and I left the NWT, we posed for the photo with the backside of the 60th Parallel sign, as we got the other side when we moved up there.
That’s awesome about the sign. For us, it only rained after leaving High Level each time. As I said, High Level to FP and then High Level south on the way home till Manning for sure. (Not a great impression of High Level for me). I can recall the bugs on the way north at the sign, but I don’t recall them in the dry on the way back. In Yellowknife there were no bugs. Out at Prelude for the day… I remember using bug spray. But obviously locals weren’t. Such a great trip.
Found you thru Kraken, love your videos, the editing is amazing. I know some people in Yellowknife and a friend of mine had lived there for many years as her hubby is RCMP
What an AMAZING Motorcycle Trip.! I want to do a X-Country Trip from Calgary to perhaps Vancouver Island (except I do not want to Ride it) I prefer to take a Truck with my Bike in the back and I want to meet as many MotoVloggers on the trip as possible.
Since I am helping my Friend plan his MotoTrip to Tuktoyaktuk, I felt I just had to watch this video again. I know Yellowknife is not on the way to Tuk, but I know you have the most recent experence in the Arctic. I wish you had a second video whereby you interview your Friends about their experence. I am curious to know what you 5 Gentlemen would do differently.? Did you ever use the Support Truck for any reason.? I think it was SMART to take a Support Truck. Did you take a stretcher, just in case.? Could the 3-wheeled Harley be loaded in the truck if need be.?
I thought about adding interviews from the other riders. But mostly having them share highlights and struggles. But that’s a good idea. We did not need the support vehicle at all. But because we had it, we used it. We had food and water in the truck and some fuel. We did not have a stretcher, and the 3-wheeler would not fit. But we did come face to face with a bison on the road and the support truck was able to block it from us. Which was much appreciated. As for what I would do differently, I would have to think about that. Thanks.
Mr. T, I never Ride far. The most I feel comfortable going is a full Day Trip with no sleepovers. However, I almost always take a Support Truck that brings a spare Bike in the back and a Stretcher (just in case) plus Tools, Oil, Gasoline etc. Then again, I host new Riders on their 1st ever full day MotoTrip, so they sometimes forget to fill their gas tanks and would cry if they ever got a flat. I decided to reWatch Lucinda & Craig's Arctic water feet dipping, your right they went to Tuk :-)
@@AngelFaceMotoRider A stretcher has never crossed my mind. But having the truck and being able to lie down in the back seat was a possibility. We pack tools on the bikes. My father packed oil in his trike and two of us carried fuel (besides what the truck carried). I made sure we had some food and drinks just in case we got separated. It was our trip to Yellowstone National Park in 2019 (not filmed) that I decided to carry food when the possibility of being stuck was very real. We were traveling on the Going to the Sun Road and there was an accident which caused a 1/2 day delay. We got through before the road was closed.
Having that Yellowstone National Park experence must have been invaluable. I am no expert, but in my opinion if someone was unconscious my vote would be to use the truck to take them to the nearest hospital at the same time try to have an ambulance drive towards us. I know it can be a hard decision if someone should be moved. Ooh Goodness a half a day delay is massive.! I would want to hide in the truck when it was raining as I am a Fair Weather Rider. Hee hee
@@AngelFaceMotoRider We had a chat before the ride. We said we couldn't possibly plan for every situation and we would just take things as they come. We even talked about what we would do if someone had bike issues we couldn't fix. Leave behind or wait? We figured we would "cross that bridge" when it came. Thanks again for your comments.
Great Ride!!! Absolutely beautiful!!! Oh man, I bet is was fun cleaning that Tri Glide after that trip.

So bloody beautiful, glad the old man made it up. Heck yeah cheers
Ha ha. Definitely needed some recovery time after getting home. Thanks for your comment, Tipsy! 👍
Great video! I always imagined YellowKnife as dark and dreary, don't know why. Thanks for changing my vision.
Thanks so much for your comment, Ron.

Thanks so much for your comment. Thanks for letting me know Kraken sent you my way. He’s awesome. And it really is a small world. Ride safe 🏍️
Awesome video sir.
Thanks so much, Ron! I'm already thinking about where to go for the next adventure.
Found ya by Kraken. Top job on the video, you clearly put a lot of effort into making these. Not to mention the effort to just ride to Yellowknife.
Thanks so much for your comment. It's greatly appreciated. And thanks for letting me know that Kraken sent you. He's awesome.
