I'm planning on driving from Vancouver to Halifax this summer. While waiting in secondary waiting to enter the US last week, I met a guy who said it took him two weeks to drive across the country - is that more realistic than my plan of one week ?

(My initial route plan, doing it with about 10-12 hours drive per day, is:

Vancouver - Golden

Golden - Regina

Regina - Dryden

Dryden - Kapuskasing

Kapuskasing - Montreal

Montreal - Halifax

Am I massively underestimating the distances / timing?)

I live in Vancouver, BC, occasionally visit friends in Seattle, WA, driving across the border. I'm entering under the visa waiver program.

Do I need to pay $30 for an I94 every single time, or is there a time period within which the I94 is valid for multiple crossings?

I can't see anything that clarifies this on the DHS website (only a cursory look, mind) and a random person I was talking to while waiting in the secondary inspection line this weekend told me that I only need a new I94 every six months, but I'd like to see if others have experience of this.

I'm running the stock RS 35 on there. Thoughts on changing to a brand new 2022 Marzocchi Z1 (it's up for auction right now, could get it for $100) ... or a 2025 Lyrik, for $200?

(Knolly went bankrupt a month ago and are auctioning everything off in Vancouver. I feel bad that they're going out of business, but on the other hand, every sale covers some of their debts, right?)
