I get that you are focused on the AC trail but there are so many empty roads in the middle of the country that may not be your best tool. The rail to trail suggestion is good but I find that the unrelenting flatness is harder on my knees than a rolling road with a variable effort.
Are you open to gravel roads? There are paces in the midwest where you could probably set up your tent in the road worry-free. They are often rolling and lead to odd and interesting places. Contrary to the current trend you don't really need any special equipment just go slow and enjoy the scenery. I also tour on motorcycles this picture is probably at least a half day's bicycle ride from the nearest town.
