July 8 - gw

Well, another pretty good riding day. Covered about 330 miles today, with a total trip-to-date of just over 7000 miles.

Temps: 52 - 87 degrees. Pretty wide range for the day. Sunny with clouds all day.

We determined that I lost some wheel weights yesterday, but were unable to find a store that carried stick-on weights. Finally found a Honda shop in Whitehorse and was able to get the weights from them. Took about 2 minutes to put them on the wheel. Now the bike rides alot smoother.

Today was mostly covering ground that we already travelled going North, so no news about new sights, other than we saw a brown bear today on the way. We headed mostly East today and are staying the nite at Watson Lake. We will head back west for approx 15 milwa to connect with the road heading South towards the Cassiar Highway. Looks like we are in for some construction again as we head South.

Pearse was losing his Zen today because his bike was dirty. When we got into the hotel he had to clean his motorcycle. I think he can relax now! Mike played Rocketman this afternoon and set a good pace. Rusty was stuck on Mike's back fender all the way - I think challenging Mike to pick up the pace a bit.
