    Charlevoix is the artist colony town that I was thinking of. It's on the Route Verte and it's like a northern Santa Fe, a bit, which has its plusses and minuses. I liked it when I was there about 10 or 15 years ago

    Charlevoix is actually a whole region.

    Saint-Jean-Port-Joli is probably the Santa Fe-like town you're thinking about, tulip.

    It's gorgeous, splendid area to cycle in, but now we're talking very serious climbing. Check this out for an idea:

    I know people who had their front tires explode from the heat generated by too much braking down those hills. I wish I could go cycling there sometime.

    For the Eastern Townships, you can check those town names for ideas:
    Farnham, Mystic, Stanbridge East, Frelighsburg, Sutton.
    Sutton, Glen Sutton, Mansonville, South Bolton, Lac-Brome (Knowlton).
    Lac-Brome (Knowlton), Fulford, Bromont, Farnham.

    Gorgeous riding. The pavement is not as nice as in Vermont, though, be forewarned.
