After reading those awesome articles, I am wondering whether I would want to ride through Labrador on my Cagiva Gran Canyon, or on my dual-sported Honda XR650R that I rode to Yaviza Panama and back. Tough call.
Some people may remember a few years back, American Motorcyclist had a cover article about a couple who rode to Radisson Quebec and Hudson Bay. About a year before that article, I had ridden my Kawasaki ZX-11 to Radisson and back. The only reason the road is there is so the trucks can run up to the hydro-electric dam in Radisson. On the last 400 miles due north, there is one fuel stop 240 miles out, my ZX-11 just barely made it.
That was the only man-made structure on the entire section...for 400 miles there was not another house, driveway, or store!
