by the way, does your truck even have a governor? Jesus, you're moving quick, are you behind or something?

You do know that the video is sped up at least x2 in most of the driving parts? hahahaha

[messa4]

Well speeding the video up x2 would make a lot of sense, lol. I guess you're right about the going faster on film, as I can believe that. What type of camera are you using, I like the picture that you get, it's really clear.

[north60star]

It took me a while to figure out why you thought I might be going so fast. hah

its a Canon Z930 I think. I'd like to get one of those little flip HD soon though!

[messa4]

Canon is supposed to make nice cameras, I had a canon video camera once, but it wasn't that impressive, but I imagine that the new ones like you have are all digital sensors and such. I just bought a kodak M1033 camera and it's great. Takes good pictures, and shoots 720p HD videos, which look really nice.

I have also a Canon Rebel XTi SLR camera... I looooooove it.

This is done in August of '08? When I went through there it was mid-late June, never getting dark north of the BC/Yukon border.

Nice Video. I did a solo bicycle tour from Fairbanks to Florida in 2008 and The Alaskan Highway was absolutely amazing to experience. Started heading south on July 1 at 50 miles/day. It was well worth the challenge and effort for its beauty alone. Nearly every day I saw something that rivaled 'religious experience'. If you have the chance in your lifetime to visit Alaska and Western Canada, just go.

Harley Davidson...little doubt.

can you tell me what highway this is? i plan on trying do do an IBA run on up to Deadhorse from the lower 48...is this the Dalton? and if i was on this highway believe me i'd be doing all the passing...how rough is it up at Atigun pass could a regular street bike make it through or will i need a dual sport type bike? obviously it will be attempted during July Hopefully no rain! what is the normal range in temperature up there in July?

Thank you
