Anyone want to cycle across canada? - GoFuckYourself.com

Hi,
wondering if there are any cyclists here on GFY?
I'm going to cycle across canada this summer starting
near the end of May and wondering if anyone wants
to attempt this with me?
My goal is to average about 150 KM per day. I'll be
staying in motels, not camping and I'll have my
tiny IBM X40 laptop with me so I can dial up and
check my statsremote at night :-)
I'll be starting in vancouver and ending in St-Johns newfoundland.
I expect the trip to take approx 2 or 2.5 months.

If anyone is interested in joining me or
just want to chat about it, hit me up on ICQ 203-543-271
or respond in this thread.

- cheers

Why don't you see who is willing to let you spend the night at their house along the way so that we can follow-up.
Ah! Got to go get me an ice cream now LoL

Fuck.... thats one helluva journey. Have fun.

Sounds like fun. But Canada is a bit too far away from Denmark. I've thought about cycling down through europe, but I don't think I'll ever get around to doing it.

Damn that would be fantastic! Good Luck Mang! Lucky Bastard!!!
Wish I could go... my whole schedule revolves around my spins and I am Jealous.

I have managed to get almost 20hrs a week in the saddle this winter, thanks to Sugoi Subzero gear and mild temps.

Why not come down and ride Ragbrai next year?
Come early and we can spin up to Coralville and rip on Jason McCartney.
He is on Lances' Team Discovery this year.

I'll hit you up on ICQ.
