Toronto to Vancouver July onwards, advice needed!
Hi,
I am new to this forum and would like to start off by saying Hi  .
I'm planning to motor bike from Toronto to Vancouver. I'll be working on the west cost. Figure getting a chance to explore the area before i settle in would be a good idea. Timeline is 2-3 months give or take. Mainly concerned about winter.
The goal of this trip is to
a. travel
b. explore the outdoors in between places A and B.
c. get a chance to do some rock climbing and hiking between A and B
d.  , books, and banter.
I enjoy off road riding, especially the adventure side (not a speed demon by any stretch!). I plan on camping most of the time.
I'd appreciate some advice and recommendations! I am aware of the trans-am trail and I think it'd be easy to hitch onto from Toronto. Would it be advised not to do this alone? would i meet people along the way this time of year? alternatives? Would appreciate any advice on highlights and or what to definitely NOT do.
I haven't yet decided upon a bike either and figure the trip would help me decide on the bike. The obvious seems to be the klr, though i thought maybe a comfy inexpensive ride on a nighthawk would be alright (nighthawk would obviously not do the trans am trail).
Thanks for your thoughts
