Adventure Anyone?????







I was thinking of our Blogspot entitled "The Kale Family...Our Adventurous Life in Alaska." Really Bernie is the true adventurer. When we came home from our awesome mototrcycle trip through WA, CA, OR, and Idaho, we met with a group of guys who were travelling on the Alaska Ferry System. Most, if not all of these guys, had adventure bikes. It was their dream to come to go and experience Alaska on a bike. Most had BMW's, a few had Suzuki's, and one even had a Motoguzzi which is not even sold in the US (Italian). Needless to say, Bernie definitely got the fever. When we came home, he purchased a Suzuki and wants to go riding all the time. He got some cool accessories, different riding gear, and he's ready to go. Me, on the other hand, although I love to ride, this bike is not set up for two. It's just uncomfy. I've been spoiled on my throne on the back of the Goldwing. Maybe we'll get one for me to ride in the future so we can go together but for now, he's off on his own.

These pictures are from the second week in September when he decided to go up to Hatcher's Pass over to the Willow side. He only made it so far before the roads became so slick he had to turn around. If he had the proper tires, maybe...but for now a great photoshoot.

That's hilarious. I had no idea Dad got a new bike just for "adventures" :). I'm glad he turned around too! After looking at the roads I was getting ready to scold him!
