This are the most interesting links I've found: www.themilepost.com http://www.members.home.net/adventureds1/ www.lonelyplanet.com www.adventure-motorcycling.com www.nnsl.com/inuvik/index.html There are others that I cannot find in my computer right now. Hope this helps. Juan

Buy the 2001 edition of 'the Milepost' (usually goes on sale around March). It contains a mile-by-mile description of not only the roads in Alaska (there aren't that many) but also the main roads leading up to Dawson Creek, the starting point of the Alaska Highway. Paul

With all the talk of swing lubrication, I decided to tackle the job. The swingarm is off, but one bolt holding the three hole funky thing won't come out. The nut is off. After lots of WD-40 and Liquid wrench, I can rotate the bolt both directions but it won't come out. I have hammered the hell out of it, but it won't budge. I am planning on buying a new bolt, so damaging it is not an issue. Any ideas on how to get it out? Cutting torch? Small explosive? -Adam
