Hi,
I'm thinking over where to tour this year in the time I have available, Whit week, and a week in Summer. I've a week in the Italian Dolomites planned for late July, ferry and trains booked, but where to go in Whit? :?
For no reason at all, New England came to mind. Flights should be easy to sort, say Boston as an entry point. I'd need to hire a bike, a google brings up http://www.moturis.com/, where I'd pick a Goldwing, as the only bike which has enough carrying capacity for my partner's clothes and stuff, so this is starting to look a possibility.
Now, this is where the questions start,
I've no idea where to go / visit , or where to stay, during this short week, so any suggestions would help.
When I tour in mainland Europe, I generally ride till 3pm or so, and then find somewhere to stay, I've never had any problems with this approach. Is this possible in New England? Or should I plan hotels in advance? Or would a 'base' be better?
Are there any suggestions for bike hire? What options should I get CDW etc? Insurance?
Can anyone recommend http://www.moturis.com/ or alternatives near an Airport?
Thanks for any help with this.
Steve
