That's a tough one, Dan... something I couldn't answer. Perhaps your local dealer could suggest who locally you could ask.

Here is a link I have used to see what roads are interesting to ride. You could use this after you got some tentative routes planned.

It sounds like an interesting trip! Good luck!

try google maps,
OR
I bought a Road Atlas some years ago at the walmart/kmart for about 5 bucks. It had all the roads and best routes in it.
I carry it in my saddle bag and about ready for a new one but used it many times for trips to areas I wasn't familiar with..
Give that a try.
Hope it helps,
RK

Roadking

I have road map, I know google maps.mapquest, I have a GPS but what I want to know is the peoples knowledge, experience like if you want to go to Montreal I can tell you where to go and where to don't go which road to take and the one to avoid that's what I want.

Thanks

Dan

Hey Dan,
thats what I'm trying to tell you, in the road atlas it has (some) of that kind of info and also I've seen that info on the internet maps... just keep in mind some ppl have different ideas about traffic and road conditions... what might not be good for you they might not mind...
any way only want you to enjoy your travels and have a safe trip!!
