Comments for Yukon Ho! http://yukonho.neenerneet.net Biking to Dawson City, Yukon from Vancouver Island, BC Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:29:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.2 Comment on July 6 – July 26: Whitehorse to Dawson and DCMF by Amy http://yukonho.neenerneet.net/2006/08/22/july-6-%e2%80%93-july-26-whitehorse-to-dawson-and-dcmf/#comment-25 Sat, 17 Feb 2007 02:35:07 +0000 http://yukonho.neenerneet.net/2006/08/22/july-6-%e2%80%93-july-26-whitehorse-to-dawson-and-dcmf/#comment-25 Yes, you are rite. I'll never write my bike as much as him. All of your clearly conveyed and completely sensical ramblings have shown me the the light. Why does my anger over my inability to beat Dieter's bike right record manifest itself in my voicing my perceptions? PS -a quick google search proved that this is not the first time you've sought out negative feedback about the River Hostel and reprimanded the "arrogant bastards" behind it. What gives? Mission from God? Dieter paying you? Enlighten me, because I can't imagine what drives a person to do this as a hobby... Yes, you are rite. I’ll never write my bike as much as him.

Got to say something about what you wrote concerning the hostel. Have been there a few times and I got to know the owner a bit and calling him a weirdo turns you (the writer) into Mr. clueless. Almost all money paid for second-hand stuff he finds left behind goes into the Unicef box displayed prominently on the counter. A small bar of soap goes for 25 cents -into Unicef box- 0ne $ for those left-behind DCMF cups - into the Unicef box - etc etc. And if you silly-ass had any brains you would have noticed all that free food in the kitchen and those free lockers and was there any charge for the bath house? NO. Your description of the bath house indicates that you must have been drunk when trying to use it - it`s like a sauna with hot water......and there are no steel drums in the bath house. Other than the stove that heats the water - obviously! What is your point about him having a few photos of himself in shorts riding his bike? That guy cycled the world for 15 years and, I believe, 120.000 km.........and he only talks about himself if people ask. $130 for a bear proof container? So, don`t buy it and get one from MEC. The hostel is the only place in the Yukon selling them.....and he rents them for $5 per day - big deal? The bus he runs? There was one other service to Whitehorse charging $160 US.....that outfit from Fairbanks. Ok, you do not seem to like that guy because he certainly wrote more bike than you will in two life times but at least be fair. Calv Hello to whoever wrote above piece.

Lots of things must have happened since we last heard from you and I realise you're not always close to a café but ..What are you DOING?? My PC was down for a week..damaged BOOT.INI and wouldn't start up no matter what I tried.But I did manage to access drive "D" to save a few things off of the master drive"C". It took them 4 days to figure out I needed a new MotherBoard plus a new Hard Drive.The electrical system was fine.At first I was sure I'd been highjacked.BUT I must have worn the thing out ay? Hope you're having a good trip and are experiencing wonderful sights..and waterways..did you dig for gold?It would have tickled my fancy to have done so if I'd gone.. Where-abouts in Alaska did you go? Matthew was over this p.m. and asked if I'd heard from you. Keep in touch and take care.. Love xoxox Gramma B. Hi Sean and Amy..
