I've been wanting to ride out to the Rocky Mountains from my home in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada since I bought my Honda GL1800 four years ago. Finally, I'll be on my way on June 14th, 2007. Below you'll find details of each day's activities. As shown, the ride is about 12,000km, but additional side trips will probably increase it to about 15,000km. I hope to update this website daily, but updates may be infrequent when camping, especially in the federal parks. I welcome email at arthur@cyclesurf.com. A more interactive "blog" may be found on one of the motorcycle forums I frequent: Riders Rally, where I post under the alias of "Sunkist". Thanks for visiting!
