Planning Canada Cycle Tours

When planning your road cycle route in Canada research is key so to maximize sightseeing opportunities, bike rest stops and overnight accommodations if you are embarking on a multi day bike ride. When riding within city limits, there are usually bike paths one can access to avoid traffic and, in many cases, connect to the local greenways and parks. Therefore, with proper research, one will not miss any sights, services and opportunities for (phone) cell reception. Be reminded that cell service is sketchy in many rural areas.
