USA East to West
I'm relocating from England to Seattle and thought I'd take the opportunity to clock up some miles on my GS, hence the posting.
I believe the better North route will still be blockedin places in April, so have come up with the following:
I've just picked up Road Trip USA-jamie jensen ISBN 1-56691-396-9 Avalon Travel Publishing.
It lays out a network of 2 lane scenic highways, so here's my unrefined first draft version of the route East to West:
Ship in to JFK-escape from NY on 70 toward Philadelphia, aiming towards Columbus.
Down to Indianapolis still on the 70 and through to St Louis. Pick up the 35 for Kansas City.
Topeka, Dodge City, Pueblo, Provo, Ely.
At Ely turn North to Boise, the 84/90 up to Seattle.
Shouldn't take more than a couple of hours at most!
Using this as a base template route I can already see alternatives for breaking north east earlier and whilst it's easier to identify the larger cities, on the map I have, I'd be happier to miss them, so any refinements folks?
