I'm planning to do the SaddleSore 1600K this summer. Would like some advice on my route options. I will might be doing this solo on my CB500X. Hoping to get some advice from other riders who may have ridden these highways.
The plan is to leave at 4am so that it's daylight by the time I hit outskirts and hopefully on a major highway by the time it gets dark to avoid wildlife. I'm also not interested in crossing to the US.
First route. Go north. I'd get to ride thru places I've never been before. Are there enough gas stations along this route? Will I be able to maintain a decent average speed on these highways?

The other option would be East. It's an easy steady pace, fuel/food is readily available but I've seen this section of the 401 to Montreal many times and it seems less interesting than going north.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
