Hello Everybody! I hope everybody is doing all right. Here everything is okay. It's been raining for the past many days, but who cares? Other than the weather and the frequent stops at the road constructions everything is cool. My bike just got new shoes. D606. The OEM K750 lasted 13811 km and I'll leave it at the famos Sign Post Forest. Actually the last 500+ km were a little pushed - I shouldn't have done it. On a back road I ran into some deep sand, and after loosing traction, started to zigzag, and fell! ... yep, I was kinda pissed off, but I got it up, and went around. No big deal. KLR650 can take anything. It's a lovely scenary from the panoramic view of my helmet, sometimes looks even much nicer then from a cage. I've been on this stratch of the Alaska Highway before (with my car), but I tell you, now it looks MUCH nicer. :o) And if a side road looks very inviting, I just go in and explore it. Since I still don't have my house sold, I'm still on low budget, so the slow speed milage testing is still on. KLR650 A13: went on reserve at 501 km @ 90km/hr. ... no, I'm not making this up, it is true! XT350 on reserve at 318 km @ 90 km/hr (it has only 10+2 liter tank) I don't know about you, guys and galls but I love fresh bread, so I decided to bake my own on the stove. Bannock is the easiest to make. Try it, if you feel like and you are on a trip somewhere. Check out http:\\wwww.recipes.com - or something like this, look around. That's all for now. There is not much to say about the places I'm riding through, many people have done it before me, many of you have done it, and honestly not much is going on. I think it's because of the rain. There are very few bikes out there, I met only a few people, at the road construction sites, waiting for the pilot car. Take care and ride carefully! Cheers, istvan+Eh13
