Canadian Adventure: Montreal to Inuvik solo (2008)

You know what, I love Adventure but I would probably not do it again in mud and rain!

Thanks for the comment!

Wonderful ride report. I am among those who appreciate your honest and accurate writing style.

I picked up several ideas for a similar ride I'm planning.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Still working on my spelling mistakes!!!

Hope you get the chance to go up there one day! Well worth it!

Great RR, just read the whole report and loved the pictures and descriptions, your English is really good, wish my French was that good

I have traveled up the east coast all the way to Gaspe, QC and loved the area. I want to do Nova Scotia and Labrador too.

In 2012 I'm planning on going to Deadhorse, Alaska, I read your trip with great interest because you followed a route that I want to do. I'm planning on crossing to Canada in Buffalo and then follow the Trans Canada Hwy and end in Dawson Creek.
From there I will follow the Alaska Hwy and go north to Dawson, YT. I will then go into Alaska.

On the way back I will hit Jasper and Banff

Thanks for the report and pictures

Just marvellous I just went through your whole trip log and it is awesome...... just dont have words. I think you used the complete potential of GS. Great going buddy

Thanks!

Make sure you save a bit of time for Dawson City! Quite a fun place!

About Labrador, I did it 2 summers ago. Long drive! I hope you will make Newfoundland part of you ride because it was the highlight of my summer!

Enjoy the trip! you won't regret it!

Thanks Shivanshu! Dreaming of riding my beast in your country one day!!!

Your commentary on Alberta and Edmonton in particular were offensive and inaccurate. I've never heard the term "Ed-monotone" in 52 years. Your comments reflect what we hear a lot - jealousy and envy. Do us all a favour and don't come back please.

You're right. I have removed the comments.

I've been back in AB and Edmonton a few times since 2008. First impressions are sometimes wrong and yes, like every city, once you get to know people from the area, it's easier to appreciate the city and discover what it has to offer!

Great Ride! Next time do yourself a favor and visit the Kootenays in the SE corner of BC.

You are so right! I might visit next summer. I did drive thru the park if I remember well, but was a bit on a rush to get to Calgary. It looked very good. Many great lakes and mountain.

Obviously, there are many places I did not visit. Perfect reason to drive back no?!!!

Salut Marc!! Super ride report!! Merci pour les belle photos, c'est tout un trip que tu as fait là!! Depuis que j'avais vu ta moto neuve sortir du crate chez Moto Inter via youtube, je me doutais bien que tu nous ferais un beau voyage documenter un de ces quatres!! Encore une fois merci de partager ce trip avec nous autres!! C'est vraiment inspirant!!

Wow, tu es au courant de bien des choses!!!

Effectivement, après la sortie de boîte, je n'ai pas pu résister de faire quelques kilomètres avec la bête! J'ai finalement fait 80 000 km en 2 étés (tout le Canada et une partie de l'Ouest Américan) pour ensuite la remplacer par une 2010:

Je rêve maintenant à la Patagonia et l'Europe!

Salut Marc!! C'est vrai que je suis au courant de pas mal de chose qui concerne les voyages à moto!!! Je me ramasse une banque de donner sur l'ouest Canadien, TNW, et Alaska, provenant de trippeux de voyage à moto comme toi!!! Bonne chance pour ton prochain voyage et tiens nous au courant s.v.p.!!!

Well done. Thanks!

Thanks! Was lots of fun to write, and to ride!

Excellent journey and report. Brave and crazy to do the Dempster solo. Your timing was good, not much life left in those tires. Tres bon. Merci.

Thanks!

Yes, indeed, a bit crazy to do it alone... And on that particular day, felt pretty alone too! Didn't see any other bike an only a handfull of cars/trucks.

Nice read. Thanks for posting.
