Four corners of Canada

[kerbside]

I just spotted the link in your trip. (I spend limited time in the site these days, too much going on).
Anyway I hope the adventure pans out for you. I was heading to Tuk last July - until I had a bad off, but plan to head north again late July. Not sure I'd try it in June my friend !
If you are in the lower mainland in BC in the next weeks we'd be happy to host you, and provide shop space if needed. Just need advance warning to ensure we are around.
Take care.

They made it to Dease Lake!

They are less than a days ride to the signpost forest, what will they leave behind? Stratford, ON? Saint John’s NFLD?

Don't recall reading who the 'they' are with Robert?

Just one other bike I believe. His daughters husbands father... co-father-in-law I think is the term.

And, Kiltman posts on FB everyday. Robert Pel is the name.

I hope he has not hit trouble. I see that his track has not moved since last night. I can't see any info on FB but maybe I am not looking in the right place.

I have a more positive view on this, I think they are at this place, a campground designed for motorcycles, it would be 8 days on the bike now so a scheduled rest wouldn’t be unreasonable. No inside info but from looking at the map it seems a reasonable assumption.

He's in Whitehorse getting new tires, as per his latest FB post.

Ah....the old "forgot to turn on the InReach" trick. Who among us haven't done the same!!

This was a planned stop to swap tires..... he'll be doing the same on the return leg.

Kiltman is so organized librarians call him for advice.

After checking this morning if I still have a pulse I looked at Robert’s track and it seems he didn’t enjoy a restful night, moved the bike three times during the night. Looks like they are camping at the side of the road, maybe drivers catching sight of the bike’s reflectors stopped to do a wellness check and woke the tired travellers . Hope they are enjoying their trek.

This may explain their roadside stay. (Stolen from Kiltman's Facebook page)


First flat of the adventure. Rim tape fatigued and punctured the tube. (John’s bike)
