My summer trip
May. 12th, 2010 08:57 pmI've been roughing out the trip. It has, in effect, four legs (there is a fifth in there, but it's a one day ride, and the end points are known, so...).
I've roughed out the first one, Palo Alto to Oak Ridge. I turns out I'll be swinging into LA, because of the parameters I set.
About eight hours of riding time, per day, and notable cities as waypoints.
So, take a look, and if anyone has a couch to offer, or friends, along that route, to whom they might extend letters of introduction, that would be swell.

And on the TransCanada, I highly recommend the town of Field, on the border between Alberta and BC. It's a railroad and tourist town, in the middle of Yoho National Park, small town, good hostel www.fireweedhostel.com, absolutely lovely people (and some of my favorite hiking in the world, but that's not the point).
