For best riding fun I would travel to Buffalo and go through Ontario to Michigan and then take I-75 north to the Mackinaw Bridge. The get on old US 2 west through the UP of Michigan and then through North Dakota and on to Shelby, Monatana. You avoid Chicago that way. It is the shortest way, too. You are looking at 5,000 miles to Anchorage from CT.

Then head north to Lethbridge, Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta and then on to Dawson Creek, BC and the start of the Alaska Highway.

The Trans-Canada Highway would be a nice alternate return route.

I did it in 1970 in Ford Falcon. Then there were 1100 miles of gravel but I hear it is all paved now. I would love to join you and plan to ride this route myself someday soon.
