Routes / Re: Help Me: Advice routes from Boston, Ma to San Francisco, Ca

« on: February 11, 2009, 10:21:00 am »

Hey, thanks for the advice, and I suppose it would be a little more appropriate to have some information about what I want to do. I would love to camp as much as I can, on a solo bikeride. I am not worried about missing out on anything to see in the country as I have never been west really, so everything will be novel to me. I would like to ride about 90 miles a day, as I realize the time limitations I have set for myself would demand such. (I am thinking more like 50 days of riding, not 45). I am not adverse to the weather....what can you do about it anyways. I have looked on the crazyguyonabike webpage and he has some really great stuff. He did the trip west to east which would change the dynamic of my ride. I have also looked at the ACA bike routes and they seem very helpful, would it be possible to simply follow ACA routes from KY to CA, with alterations at the beginning of my trip? I realize that from Boston to Kentucky area would have to be improvised. Hope that helps clarify things, and thanks for the help!!!
