Great pics Viper. Always great to see pics of places I haven't been.

That is quite an ambitious logistics exercise to ride from PA. Most of the trips we do on snowmobile at least have the "luxury" of going most of the way in truck + trailer before we strike off. Curious what things you didn't have (but wish you had brought) and what you planned for spares, etc.?

We rented a SAT phone but didn't use it. A SAT phone actually is available for free from the Labrador government but is setup only to use for emergency dialing. We started out with new tires and we took some plugs and tire pumps but didn't need

Great picts and trip. And nice Vstroms.  Also had a 2011 DL650.  Traveled from home on different trips to WV, Maine, PA, VA.

Wonderful touring, do it all bikes.

Just sold it this year and miss it.

 

 

Favarcat, small world Jim Thorpe is about 10 miles from my home. I actually poured that concrete just to the left of your bike behind the green garbage can 2014-06-16_18-28-38_297.jpg
