Will do!
We're going to do the Route Verte east from Montreal through the Eastern Townships to Sherbrooke, then diagonal northeast up from there to Quebec City. I've done parts of the Route Verte there before... it's a fun ride and 90% of it will be on dedicated bike lanes, which is pretty amazing. However, well over half of it is gravel or packed earth and sometimes it's a bit rough, which is why my wife and I will be on hybrids (my younger son will be on a Specialized Diverge, which is a pretty gravel friendly road bike).
