Watching it took me 20 mins extra freeze framing signs and tracing the route on Maps on my phone. It was pretty straight forward all the way to Salt Lake City then straight up 15 north to Pocatello. He turned left in Blackfoot Idaho to take the scenic route and pretty much followed 93 all the way north through Missoula, Skookumchuck, Radium Hot Springs, then left at Castle Junction, through to Jasper when 93 ends. He then picked up 40 through to Grand Prairie then it's 43 all the way to the BC border where it becomes 2 just before Dawson Creek then the same road all the way to Fairbanks.

I want to know lots more about this trip! What motivated it, route (as others have been saying), how long it took, gear loadout and riding setup, weather, sleeping (all camping or hotels too), any bike maintenance (tires?) or issues to solve. I’ve done 500 miles on a SV650S in a day and it wrecked my knees for days afterwards so I’m curious how your body held up. 😄 Such a rad and inspiring adventure! You’ve got my vote and view for a follow up video. 👍 🍻

Great video, looks like a beautiful journey. You've got to love the U.S. for this being possible. Here in the UK that spirit of adventure is quickly heeded when you get to the other side of the country in a few hours in most directions, not to mention the fuel costs, 8000miles would be around £1500-£2k. I tried filming something similar once, got a big fat fly dead on the lens within the first 2 minutes, and a data card full of video with messy squelch overlay for the whole thing.😂
