If we have missed a visitor information resource in your area that you would like us to consider, use the comment box below or use the form on the Contact Us page to provide more details. While we may not be able to quickly address every suggestion, we appreciate all input and will attempt to incorporate new biking information as time and funding allow.
Very nice website. I suggest you consider adding a lodging section to your website and map to show all of the various lodging options for bikers.
You have highlighted one the main restrictions on Federal/State Scenic Byways funding – it cannot be used to promote individual businesses. We list bike shops as a key component for the safety and enjoyment of the Scenic Byways by bicycle – and we try to list them all. It is not feasible for ANCA to maintain a list of all the lodging properties in 15 North Country counties. Our approach is to list all of the county and regional tourism agencies, as well as local Chambers that offer tourism information. We also direct bicyclists to specific travel information resources on each of our route description pages. We encourage lodging owners and others to become members of those tourism organizations so that the Byways traveler can find you there. ANCA uses that same approach on our other Scenic Byways website, http://adirondackscenicbyways.org/
Great website! Do you plan to list bike-friendly accommodations along the routes shown? If so, count us in.
Thanks for your good work!
Under Federal/State Scenic Byways funding we cannot promote individual businesses at this time. While we list all the bike shops as a key component of informed and enjoyable bicycling – it is not feasible for ANCA to maintain a list of all the lodging properties in 15 North Country counties. We do list all of the county and regional tourism agencies, as well as local Chambers that offer tourism information, and we encourage lodging owners to become members of those tourism organizations so that the Byways traveler can find you there.
