Never been to BC nor done a long-distance tour. OTOH BC seems like a great area for touring--there are tons of BC touring companies online. TV/movies often filmed in BC, seems like lots of great mountain & lake scenery. Reading blogs about trans-Canada/trans-USA tours it seems rare to find folks who just get bored to tears. I dunno, I guess folks settle into the routine & enjoy logging the kilometers until the more scenic portions come around. Just depends on the personality eh?
