The7th Annual 2007 Florida/Alaska Motorcycle Benefit Run will be from St. Augustine, Florida to Fairbank, Alaska with almost a full week for you to explore Alaska either with a group or solo.  The route will have several short days to allow time for laundry, bike maintenance, etc.  Going to Alaska we will do the shortest direct route with the return trip taking in Logan, Utah to participate in their mini run and then retutrn via a direct easterly route thru Wyoming/Nebraska.  To register (please register ASAP so we can arrange lodging, and definitely before June 1, 2008), click this link.

Here is a photo link of a trip Patrick Henry took with me on his 250cc Suzuki!


Here is a testimonial by Dave Stufflebeam :"I don't know if waiting till you are 65 years old is the best time to do this the first time, but I had a blast."
 
     This trip will be approximately 9,700 miles, averaging 500 miles a day.  Start is July 3, 2008 in St. Augustine, Florida.  There will be check-in points daily (ride one day or more).  Bikers can opt to share a hotel room to save on costs.  In 2006, the average cost to bikers sharing rooms was just $27.01 per day, including tax.
      We are accepting bids for the 7th Annual Run for us to stop at various places for mini-runs and mini-rallies, preferrably thru SKI HI, the organization we are collecting funds for.  We are also looking for five to eight places that want to participate in a POKER RUN where bikers will stop in, shop, and draw a card to win a major prize.  See www.AlaskaBikeRun.com for tentative schedule and route for 2008.
     We are also seeking donations of motorcycles, luggage racks, and other accessories to be offered as incentives and prizes.

I will be updating this and add specific lodging.  Most likely, it will be Best Western due to the ample size of the rooms (to allow two bikers per room  to spread sleeping bags to economize even more).  Starting time each day vary but you, of course, can sleep in and catch up with us later in the day.
