Routes / 48 states ride

« on: January 25, 2009, 11:15:43 pm »

I'm thinking about going on a 48 states ride(where I hit each of the states in the continental US), and it looks like it would be at the very least 8,000 miles, at least on the routes that I have looked at. Is there any precedent for this trip, and if you have any input on time of year/route selection, I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

Routes / Western Virginia Route- route 80 quality

« on: June 17, 2008, 08:41:31 pm »

I'm actually doing the trans-America + Western Express on rollerblades. I've been having a good trip so far, and have been taking more major roads like route 11 with smooth pavement. I'm wondering what the quality of the road is along route 80; how's the pavement? i really strongly prefer very smooth pavement, so let me know if i should be looking for another route. Thanks!
