We like the July 16th date as a first choice. But can be flexable. When we went in 2014 it was about that time in July and the weather was great. Only rain we had in 12 days was passing threw Quebec. Probably somehow Norm related even though we hadn't met yet. Should be a fun trip

Sure blame me Rob. I can change my vote at any time, heck I can stack the deck in your favour!

If I don't end up going to Iceland, I would like to make the trip up in July. I can't go in August. I'll be back at work.

Yes you need a Passport or a Passport Card to get in Canada . And if you fly anywhere in the states your will now also need a Passport or Passport Card ! That law went into effect this year for most states and will be in effect for all soon!

It's about a 4K mile round trip for me, so I would be camping there and back to save some money. 4 days of riding each way to be comfortable. The Cabot Trail looks like an awesome ride.
If I can work this out, we may camp together on the way up. Which way you heading north ? Highway or scenic?

Going that far in 4 days, I would probably be taking the highway. I would probably camp at KOAs in Lynchburg, VA, Cooperstown, NY, and Bangor, Maine.

Once a date has been decided, I'll have to discuss with my wife and see if I can be gone long enough to do a scenic route, at least one way. If I do that, it would be 5 days, at least one way (probably up), and a different set of camps.
