[QUOTE="TestPilot, post: 947899, member: 515"] Hi all you 'Murcans and Canucks. In September 2 Aussie couples will be touring USA and Canada, basically heading from Salt Lake City to Hyder and back. Here's a rough outline of our draft plan: Sat 7 Sep leave Salt Lake City and head north to Jackson for night 1. Next day head to Yellowstone (via Grand Tetons, I think) Nights 2 & 3: Yellowstone. Arrive Southern entrance, leave via the NE entrance - apparently a great road Night 4: Great Falls - then head to Glacier National Park and ride 'Road to The Sun'. 5: Stay at western end of The Road to The Sun, then head to Banff the next day. 6, 7, 8: Banff (morning trip to Lake Louise, ride locally, be tourists going up cableways, etc) 9: Somewhere past Jasper (includes riding the Icefields Parkway) 10: Halfway to Hyder 11 & 12: Hyder Then head south again, either taking a ferry to Vancouver Island. Then another ferry to Vancouver, to Whistler then Lillooet (route 99) then south with a day or 3 around Coeur d'Alene (did I spell that right) then back to SLC. The total trip will be 3 or 4 weeks - still deciding how long. You should find my first attempt at a map here: [URL="https://preview.tinyurl.com/8yd7wyc"]https://preview.tinyurl.com/8yd7wyc[/URL] We (the riders) are motorcyclists first, and tourists second. Our wives are probably offset the other way round, but they get all the time they like looking at stuff from the back of the bike. Any suggestions on 'must ride roads' or 'must see and do stuff' or 'must avoid at all costs' suggestions will be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
