Routes / Washington, DC to Montréal
« on: April 04, 2009, 06:02:11 pm »
I am planning to ride from Washington, DC to Montréal this July. I chose this route because it looks like a nice first encounter with North America for a Dutchman. I plan to follow roughly the ACA Atlantic Coast Route from Washington to NYC, and then ride up north along the Hudson following New York State bike route 9, and then do a short stretch of the Route Verte to Montréal.
I have two questions about this. Is it a good plan to ride this route? Or am I missing even greater bike routes close by?
And does anyone know if there are printed bike maps of NY State for sale? There's a lot of information on the Department of Transportation web site, but I can't order it on dead trees anywhere.
