Riding the “Haul Road” in Alaska
Episode 36
Philip Freeman
Riding to Prudhoe Bay by Motorcycle
The Dalton Highway starts in Alaska and terminates 414 miles north in Deadhorse, the town that exists to support the oilfields of the Alyeska Pipeline. Join us for a conversation with a motorcyclist who has logged almost 7,500 miles on The Dalton, completing the trip 18 times. Phil Freeman shares changing road conditions, stunning scenery and how to pass an 18-wheeler and not get lo0se teeth from a trucker’s fist.
The Dalton is the northernmost highway on the continent and draws box-checkers, bikers and scooter riders from around the world. Phil gives his thoughts about Beaver Slides, Monkey Butts and Sabres. Make sure you have extra wipes in your tank bag for this one.
Phil talks about what he tells motorcyclists what to expect when they ride the Dalton Highway to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska
