I'll second Nova Scotia. I toured up there a few years ago. It's wonderful, and around Halifax it has a very European flavor. The people were friendly and the motorists, when on the road, were very courteous. They did not once try to run me off the road or yell at me, and most of the time waved as they went past.
It was completely different when I returned to Bar Harbor, Maine via the Ferry from NS. I wasn't on the road twenty seconds when some jerk honked, yelled and tried to run me into a stone wall. I blew him a kiss, a smile and gave him a finger salute while saying to my self, "Welcome home." Wishing I were still in Nova Scotia. I think that destination should be given a serious consideration.

Vegas Cyclist, I'll be in LV for the bike show in October, but don't think I can take you up on the offer of "Vegas hospitality" because I'll be staying with my daughter, my grand daughter and great grand son. But thank you for the offer. It is quite generous.
(Normal hospitality is $500. in chips, Free room and board and all the scotch I can drink with tickets to every big show thrown in, Right? That is difficult to pass up, but I'm not sure my family would understand; especially since I only get out there every two years.)
