Hi,

Looking for mountain biking enthusiasts in America!
[pardon my American - tried my best πŸ™‚ ]

My name is Paul, and I live in Kielce, Poland.
This summer I plan to take a North American tour on my bike with panniers and tent. I intend to start at my home town Kielce and travel south through Slovakia, Austria, Canada, America, Mexico, North Mexico to Athens in Greece.
I plan to set off in the second half of June 2006. The whole trip one-way will amount to about 1554 miles, and I’m planning on riding back too.

I am looking for some contacts with bikers in America to help me pick out the best routes across the country and point me toward the coolest spots along the way. I'm also curious about things like the cost of food & drink, where to camp, and so on.

Any help would be hugely appreciated. I'm comfortable communicating in English or Polishβ€”and maybe even some American if you can point me toward a good online dictionary or translation tool.

Cheers,
#:-)
Paul Stefanczyk, Kielce, Poland

Don't mind that silly remark from Zachary Alvarez8 πŸ™‚
Which direction are you heading in, and what’s your target mileage for each day? Also, what kind of sights pull you in the most (Nature? historical places? beaches? ...)

Since you're planning to ride 1554 miles as one big group, I'm assuming you've got plenty of experience under your beltβ€”so hopefully, you won't be too bothered by heavy traffic. Honestly, sometimes there's just no way around those busy stretches.

TripAdvisor forum could also be useful. Honestly, I'm just sitting here hanging on your responses, waiting to see what you all think before I dive any deeper into this.
