Dear OT, I'm going on a bicycle tour for the month of May. The route is Montreal to Albany, then east to roughly Syracuse, and finally back up to Ottawa
from there. Is there anything exciting to do on the way? especially on rest days? The route is basically set, but if there's anything worthwhile, I'd
be willing to deviate from it a bit. tia.

My brother took a bike trip from NYC to Maine with some friends. He kept it secret from my father though. He would have freaked the fuck out. Are you camping
or staying in motels?

The route you'll be taking is thru the Adirondack Mountains at one time voted the most scenic in America.It is beautiful especially in winter I find.
Montreal is a great city with lots to see.I love Lake George -lots of beaches. I think you'll enjoy your trip. |

Albany is the capital of NY. That's gotta be good for something, no?

What towns do you go through from Albany to Syracuse? A few posters live in between.
