Dusk to Dawn 2010 is the name of the party everybody came to Dawson City for. They rode their bikes from as far as Perth, Australia or as close as just over the border from Anchorage, Alaska. An adventure rider is what they like to call themselves and Harley Davidson can’t be found anywhere. Tall stubby knobbed BMWs, KTMs and KLRs (Kawasaki) are the preferred choice of transportation and the dirt their bikes are covered with is sign of a good trip rather than an indication of the owner’s cleanliness. This was my last day in Dawson City and tomorrow I am starting to head towards home. But as they say in Canada: no worry. There will be a lot more to see and to report about.
