Biking Alaska to Argentina in 500 Days

If there is an aspect of being on 2 wheels that interests me it’s stuff like this:

Amazing.

If I could walk away from life as a whole at this stage in my life I would. Maybe next lifetime

I’ll watch your car while you go.

yep

This looks like a very cool video to watch later. I skimmed it but definitely want to roll through again. Awesome cruise for this guy to take and some crazy places hes taken that bike!

Reminds me of my friend…

He rode his bicycle to Mexico City, was planning on Argentina but didn’t make it all the way there.

Saw this the other day while just browsing youtube, definitely an amazing journey. Makes me want an enduro bike now.

After my second drive across the country just came to an end Sunday. I cant imagine as a car guy, as a human not wanting to see this country. Ive never taken a cross country trip and regretted it.

That was awesome. Thanks for posting this!

I think anyone would be more amazed to hear this ISN’T something I have a huge interest in hahaha. Maybe one day I can do something like this in a mid-life crisis when I have a ton of vacation time saved up and the money to do it…but I deeply regret not taking a year or two off between highschool and college to do something like this.

I once read a REALLY great story/thread about an 18yr old kid that bought a 30yr old motorcycle, quit his job, and just hopped on the bike with no real destinations in mind. lots of awesome mini-stories about his adventures were inside…I’m trying to find it to post but having a hard time.

EDIT: I FOUND IT!!!

Also, there was a pretty cool youtube/tumblr series called “Adventure Prone”…it’s two guys that never in their life rode, bought a pair of late 70’s honda CB750’s, and started riding all over the country. It’s broken up into “episodes”…like over 30 videos…all well-done. I really enjoyed that series as well.
