Adventures in Motorcycle Touring
In this video I share my thoughts on what it’s like to ride the Dalton Highway on a motorcycle as well as some tips for those who want to give it a try. On our trip in July of 2024 I rode my 2016 KTM 1290 Super Adventure while my sister rode my 2021 KTM 890 ADV R. Hope you find some value in the video!

Leaving Tupelo, MS, the weather was less than great. The temperature had dropped and I chanced the rain all the way to Huntington, WV. On the final day of the trip, I had planned to ride some of the epic West Virginia mountain roads but the 35 degree temps, wet asphalt and fog lead me back to the interstate which I had to take the rest of the way home. Ultimately, it was a great late year trip that was

The entire experience was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy
