Transamerica light touring
I'm hoping to do a transamerica ride in the next couple of years. I'm
currently leaning towards the Adventure Cycling northern tier route. However, I'm not big on camping and would prefer to travel light and stay in motels. An Adventure Cycling FAQ claims that with careful planning and some adjustments to daily mileage, it can be done. Anyone out there tried it? If not the northern tier route specifically, how about other long tours where there was no commerical organization pre-arranging the accomodations? |

My cross country trip in 2003 from Tacoma WA to Washington DC was
motels all but one night. See http://www.cliffallo.us/Cycling/JuneJuly2003/ for a partial report. I have another tour from Seattle to Portland, Maine, sticking closer to the Northern Tier, planned out, again using motels. DeLorme's Street Atlas and Yahoo's Yellow Pages have provided enough information for planning for both tours. ACA's maps, of course, also provide useful comparions and occasionally better choices.
