I have 3 1/2 days after leaving Seattle with a rented Goldwing to return to Seattle and want to ride into BC. We like riding all day so we can put some miles on. Are there any "Must See"rides you can recommend?

I know the area is spectacular so I would greatly appreciate having a plan of attack to see as much as possible.

Hi Black You might try posting on the BC board. Tagalong did that last week and got replies.

You can cross into Canada on a rental?

Hope you have all the paperwork that might be needed.

Icefield Parkway is beautiful. If I only had time for one ride in BC it would be this.

Icefield Parkway is in Alberta-but you're right, one of the greatest rides on the continent.
