Learn more about the First Nations here: https://maps.fpcc.ca/ I want to acknowledge that this trip took me through the unceded territories of many first nations, including the ​​Samahquam Nation, Leq’a:mel First Nation, Scowlitz First Nation, Skatin Nation, Lil’wat Nation, xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

If you all remember my big week-long motorcycle trip out to Idaho, and back to Washington, with the new Exie XC bike, well, this is a slightly more dialed-in version of that set up! I’m riding a Yeti SB130 Lunch Ride, which is a great all-around bike that can handle XC mileage with enduro gnar.

I am using a 2x2 Cycles bicycle rack on the motorcycle, which works great for most on-road applications. However, it’s not built for off road, and realistically, not many people are going to ride a “bike-on-a-bike” off road. If you’d like to learn more about the 2x2 rack, here’s an affiliate link: https://bit.ly/2x2BikerackJKW

Now on to the motorcycle- that’s a 2014 Suzuki VSTROM 1000. The bike isn’t far off stock, though I did upgrade it with the following parts (affiliate links when available):
