    I've met at least 4 people who've done it. . ..

    most say it takes around 3 months.


    If you'd like to stop at organic farms along the way, I'd recommend www.wwwoof.ca

    I rode from Victoria (on Vancouver Island) to Jasper in Alberta. I'd be glad to give you the play by play if you are really interested. I use a road bike with a trailer and so didn't take the official cross Canada trail- which needs sturdier tires. I just used regular highways. It was a fantastic trip, I would soooooo highly recommend it. I did it alone and had no problems whatsoever. Drivers are polite and nice. Men are gentlemen. Fun all around.
