This summer, I am taking the family on a 2 1/2 month summer camping, hiking, climbing, mtn biking
tour of the U.S. I would like to compile a list of day bike rides (and maybe some relatively tame
overnighters) that we absolutely should not miss. and what time of the Summer (June - August) would
be the best time to go. I guess, also, if there are any permits, reservations etc that might need be
secured that would be nice to know as well.
We want to do a big loop from the mid atlantic (home), south then west, then north, and finally
coming back east through wyoming, dakotas etc. However, that is subject to change.
We will be pulling a popup and set up a "base-camp" for a week or two at a given location and
backpack, climb, bike, hike, and then move on. I have looked through lots of books, but if you know
of a book that would fulfill my quest, please pass along the title.
BTW, The kids will be 8, 10, 13. We all bike ok, but the kids do not have much technical skills
(especially while climbing). However, they can go for miles when the technical challenges are
minimal (they love water crossings, though) Thanks for any help you can give.
