Transamerica Bicycle Ride: Route Planning

I share my process of using a custom Google My Map to pin possible stops along my upcoming Transamerican bicycle ride.

The entire Transamerican Bicycle Ride playlist can be viewed here:

Thanks for the info about crazy guy on a bike. Camping is what I have the most trouble planning. Please do share a link to your map. I understand it will become less a accurate with time, but for a while it's an amazing resource.

Good luck. I am planning to cycle from LA to NY in 2025, so I will be following you closely and wishing you all the best from Japan.

Hi David. I'd love a copy a copy of your route as I'm planning for my 2024 trip. Good luck on your trip! Maybe we'll cross paths.

Hello David,
The first time I cycled in the USA was the TransAm in 2008. several cycle trips followed and I loved it. You did a remarkable job by finding out all these details. It must be a great help for all of us. Although I didn't plan any of that. It always came out good. there are a lot of good people on and off the road, trail angels, even on that "highway" of long distances the "transAm". I hope you like your trip this year! I am very curious of your experience yourself! Do you film those days and upload them on YouTube? I hope so, I can follow your trip! Next year I will start the GDMBR in Jasper and will have an adventure again myself. Have fun with the preparations! Menno from the Netherlands
