I think I’m a man.

This goes Way Beyond being a man! :)

A very, very good man.

Very, very, very good.

I’ve gone as far to offer an acquaintance a 90 mile ride once.

This is more than TEN TIMES that!!

And I Was younger. Now I’d offer 20 :)

This

I've gone as far to offer the mother of a neighbor in England to drive her about 100+ miles to Gatwick Airport. She offered to pay me the amount she would've had to pay a taxi, but I said, "Nah, it'll be an adventure". But driving through central London, across the Tower Bridge and on to Gatwick Airport, and back, was such a pain in the buttocks that I took the money. (Being a poor junior enlisted guy was another factor.)

I don’t care if you have to travel through the worst winter weather anywhere. A drive from Fort St. John, British Columbia up through the Yukon to Alaska is the trip of a lifetime.

Americans who haven’t traveled by road up north of the border might find the distances up there staggering.

If you drive north from Vancouver to Alaska, you will cover almost the exact same distance as a road trip from New York City to New Orleans just to get out of the province of British Columbia.

And at that point you have about another 600 miles to drive through the Yukon Territory to get to the Alaska border.
