Alaska to Argentina | Episode 2 | Highways Through Forests

Continuing my tour from Fairbanks, I headed east then south then east again through some of the most remote paved highways I had ever been on. They cut deep into the endless forests of Alaska, The Yukon, and northern British Columbia. Almost all of the ride was on pavement so I was able to get some significant distance. This episode covers the rest of the Alaska Highway as well as the Cassiar Highway in British Columbia and the start of the Yellowhead Highway.

About the Ride:
My name is Alex van Gelder. I'm from Seattle and I'm just starting my first intercontinental bicycle tour. The goal is to ride from Deadhorse, Alaska to Ushuaia, Argentina in one go.

I also want to ride some bikepacking routes including the Great Divide Route through the Rocky Mountains and the Peru and Ecuador Divides through the Andes.

For this trip I built my own bike using a custom frame in order to be able to withstand rough mountain roads as well as power through long distances on pavement. (I had never built a bike before so we'll see if it holds up.)

I'm editing these videos on the road, so releases my be infrequent as I try to find a quiet place to edit.
