new york to canmore canada
I've got a Triumph 900 Rally Pro 2023 model with all the kit for traveling.
I live in London England. I want to ride from New York to Canmore in Canada around May or June 2025 for two weeks. about 3000 miles taking in the best roads. I am meeting with family for two weeks afterward to tour in a camper van. the only issue is that it is a one-way trip and I can't return the bike to New York because I'm frying out of Calgary with my wife. I can accommodate my bike for all of April 2025. |
I’m not very clear on your situation, and I’m not clear what you’re asking, if anything.
Your Triumph is in London? If so, hardly anyone would ship a bike to North America—particularly the USA part of North America—in order to ride it for two weeks. But if that’s what you’re hoping to do, and you don’t mind paying through the nose for those two weeks, by all means have at it. You can air freight or surface ship into New York (the former is preferred or you may find your bike delayed at sea right when you’re planning to use it), and you can do the same out of Calgary. As a rule, Canada is far easier to ship into and out of, and when Air Canada is running their specials it’s not too expensive. But we’re talking multiple thousands of dollars/quid/euros for a scant 2 week ride. That doesn’t make sense to most people. If that’s not what you meant, or if you’re looking for some other sort of information, maybe ask for it directly. And sorry, but I don’t know what “I can accommodate my bike” means. Hope that’s helpful. Mark |
Simple, I have a bike in London England that someone can use for a month in Europe. I have all the gear as well.
I need a cheap hire for two weeks to ride from new york to Canmore in Canada. I'm trading my bike for one month in Europe for two weeks one way. |

"The best roads" means different things to different people. The shortest route will take you through a lot of straight roads without much change in altitude. If this is your preference then you'll enjoy the trip. If you prefer winding, undulating roads then perhaps take a longer route and travel through Canada, through New York state into Eastern Ontario, then central Ontario (Algonquin PP), Georgian Bay, along the north shore of Lake Superior, then central manitoba and Saskatchewan (Flin Flon, Lloydminster), into Alberta and to Canmore. This would be a little over 3000 miles but would be far more enjoyable, at least they way I travel. You'll also see a lot less traffic for most of the trip. |

Another interested party for a swap.
I live in Beckley WV (a short flight from New York). I have a 2018 Goldwing Tour that I’m willing to swap for your bike in London. The Goldwing would be great for your ride, assuming you don’t want to do some off roading with it.
Let me know if you are interested and we can work out the details of getting to and fro for each bike. I see it as entirely doable. I would like to put in a plug for Larry Simpsons 700gs. I worked out a rental with him so I could tour Newfoundland last summer. It was a successful arrangement if you wanted to use his bike. Good luck in your swap search! Ride safe! Olegeezer |
Hi, you still in the swapping mode? I have a BMW 700 GS in Nova Scotia, Canada that I would swap for your bike in England for week or two. Let me know if interested. Nova Scotia is considered one of the top motorcycling destinations in North America, especially Cape Breton (the Cabot Trail).
