Routes / Need advice cycling South West from Montreal, to join the TransAmerica trail

« on: June 05, 2013, 10:28:36 am »

As part of my cycle tour around the World (have been on the road now for four years) I am now in Montreal.
I am considering heading South West from here to join the TransAmerica trail at some point.
My questions are:
1. Are there any (established) cycle routes going SW from Montreal?
2. Do you happen to know anyone who has done something similar?
3. Where can I find a summary of places to spend the night (wild camping, camping places, hostels etc etc) in Canada and in the Us?
4. On which Canadian and American bike forums could I also post these questions?

You can contact me on: jbcorrelje@gmail.com

I hope to hear from you, I appreciate you advice,
Thanks in advance,
Jan C.

General Discussion / How to connect to the internet on the road in the US?

« on: June 05, 2013, 09:19:30 am »

Hello there to all,
While I was cycling in Australia I had a really handy pre-paid modem which enabled me to connect to the internet, through the mobile phone network, while on the road.
My question is: is something like this also available in the US where I shall be cycling next?
It has to have wifi because I have an iPod touch and a mini computer both with wifi connection capability, but no phone (!).
Which device is the cheapest to purchase and use, and which has the best coverage?

I would very much appreciate any advice and tips on this,
Thanks in advance,
Jan C., cycling around the world.
