The journey began on the 24th July 2009. We flew to Montreal as the start of our motorcycle tour of the Appalachians
Our ultimate aim was to tour the Appalachians/Smokies/Blue Ridge Parkway/Pisgah/ending with the Dragons Tail, then head East to Savannah and up the East coast back up to Canada
The Plan: Our plan was to use Montreal as our base where we spent two days acclimatising and looking around the town, and ultimately would return there to fly back out after visiting family
on the beach, then onto the Appalachian Mountains for some sight seeing and walking
Our return journey was somewhat different from the plan - as you will see from the map on the main page and from subsequent entries
The inspiration for our outward route came from Road Trip USA - which I highly recommend for anyone wanting to tour on roads away from the Interstatesb] See
