Review & Description
REVIEW: "We bought "Alaska Prudhoe Bay Highway" and found that it was inspiring. The camera shots and editing mix are down to earth...Very real. It felt like we were there and gave us the incentive to venture out. Gary has done a great job, really refreshing, WOW. We are ordering the rest of Gary's series.(Vern & Cindy, Portland)"
THE MOVIE: This is the 5th episode in the "Burro Has 3 Wheels" DVD series, that circumnavigate the roads of North, Central and South America, a Trans America Highway in the greatest sense.
After finishing the ride to Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego on the Pan American Highway the first 4 motorcycle movies in these adventure rider DVD series, Mexico, Central America, Colombia / Ecuador & Peru, Chile, Argentina were produced and simply titled "Burro Has Three Wheels".
Now, Gary Smith sets out again to finish his top to the bottom ride of the world, a road trip that would takes him to Deadhorse Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, as far north in the world as one can drive.
This time Gary is not traveling alone. His friend Tom and companion Linda have asked to accompany him. They're riding two up on a Kawasaki KLR 650, Gary's riding a 2005 Ural with a sidecar. The movie documents the reality of three riders traveling together and what they experience.
The episode provides viewers a preview beyond motorcycle book formats of what it is really like to ride Alaskan roads, a drive through the northwestern portions of Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, Yukon Territory and Alaska.
Sit back and enjoy an adventure that includes: weather, road conditions, local people with a terrific blues soundtrack.
