Ha, cheers, Lewis. How long you plan on staying in the T-dot? Toronto is my "home town" of sorts (most of my family/Canadian friends are there), but haven't been in a year and a half (although got a few games in when I was there last). If only doing a NYC>Boston>Montreal>Toronto>Philly>NYC circle didn't sound so painful.
Philly, Novermber 17-19?
Hello! I'm a Londoner who's going to be in Philly for a conference from the 17-19 (give or take a day or two on either end). I'm coming from London and was hoping to a) scam a bed and b) play some polo. I'm not sure what the deal is with my bike yet. I want to fly in to NYC to save some money, and hope to hit up Boston and Montreal for a day or two each after. Obviously lugging my bike around on china town buses and Amtrak could be a problem. But not having my bike would be a bummer. It's a tough one.
So any advice/offers of places to crash would be awesome. Obviously the couch surfing thing is reciprocal, so in exchange you will have a futon in London if you make it over here.
If you come to Toronto, I owe you some couch space.
As far as Nyc to Philly and Boston. $10 will get you and your bike on a chinatown bus. You dont even need to break your bike down! Montreal would be amtrak/greyhound/megabus and you'd need your bike in a box/bag for that.
