Weekly report 7.17.2025
Alaska Safe Riders here bringing you all-purpose vehicle safety messages thanks to the MEA Charitable Foundation and this station.
Communication is critical in Alaska. Cell phone service can be sketchy and rescue, hours away. That’s why the buddy system isn’t just smart – it can mean survival. Make sure you pack a GPS, Garmin Spot, or satellite phone. Carry emergency gear and leave a trip plan with a trusted family member or friend.
If you’re looking for some great riding on the Kenai Peninsula around Homer, check out Caribou Hills Trails off Oilwell Road or Clam Gulch near Ninilchik. There are more than 80 miles of trails here that cover rolling hills, wooded trails and wide-open riding.
This area is great for all skill-levels, depending on the route you choose. Just remember to respect private property as many trails cross mixed use lands.
You’ll find online training courses along with a host of other training tips and opportunities at Alaska_Safe_Riders_dot_o.r.g.
That’s it for this week. Remember, always ride smart. Ride safe. Wear a helmet. And be sure to tune in next week for more trail and safety tips right here.
