Totally agree on all counts. Newf was a life changing trip and I would go there tomorrow, even without a bike. Given we only had like 9 or 10 days, we trailered the bikes to NS and then threw them on the ferry to NL. That ferry is loooong and not very fun. If you're considering this trip, book early and get a cabin!
When we did WV, VA, TN, NC last year, we honestly had more fun on the no-name back roads than we did on the TOTD and the Snake, granted those were great too. We're also partial to hanging out in smokey dive bars and swapping stories with weirdos, so WV offered plenty of that.

I love Maine, but I'm often disappointed with the riding there. I don't know why, but it seems like most of their roads are flat and straight, and the ones that aren't are generally littered with RVs in the summer.
