I rethought my route a little bit, and this is my new plan. I might only make it to Maine, but if I'm having fun, I want to keep going and do this whole thing. I have around 10 friends that live on or near this route. I also want to check out Chicago, so that's why I'm going up the Great Rivers south route up to the northern tier. .Great Rivers South sounds like a cool route from what I read on the ACA website. The website also says that the northern tier crosses into Canada a bit along where I will be riding it. Do you think it would be worth it to get a passport just for the small portions of the route that go into Canada, or should I just make a detour to stay in the states? One point of this trip is to check out places I have never been since I've never really left the west coast. I also live on the Oregon coast, so I will be able to leave from my doorstep, which is pretty cool.
