Bill's got it right.
No point at all in riding cross country. Have you ever done five, 500 or 600
mile days in a row? Try it sometime....Can I assume you're English? I rode from London to Scotland in a day. You can't even get though Texas in a day.
At the pace you'd have to go, you won't see a thing. And you'll pay extra as you'll have a One Way rental. (return fee)
Fly to LA or San Francisco. Rent a bike...count on $125 to $150 a day (you might get a deal for a two week rental) Ride Highway One, Death Valley,
Grand Canyon, Southern Sierra, then take a run into Baja for a few days.
It's easy and fun. March is great in Baja.
Ride back to San Diego or LA and fly back to freezing Blighty....or forget
your past life and set up shop on the beach in Mulege'.
Go to pashnit.com to learn some good routes in California.
