Hi ZMRider23,
I'm planning a cross-country ride this spring and summer, going E to W from Cape Henlopen, Delaware to Seattle, with Omaha Nebraska along the way.
Here is our tentative route, open to changes as road construction, weather, cyclists' suggestions arise:
2016 - A bike ride in Sussex County, DE.
Our route is based in part on trying to take many rail trails, which are good for us as our daughter is 9. So we take the C&O and GAP from DC to Pittsburgh, then a good portion of the Ohio to Erie Trail, then the Katy Trail across much of Missouri.
Hope this helps, and maybe we'll see you out there! We leave in early April but we'll be going slow so you'll probably zoom past us somewhere along the way if you're going this season.
Rob
