I've only toured in 25 states, I think. The competitive part of me wants to remind you that I've toured in Oklahoma and you haven't. LOL
Anyway, whatever route you come up with, I look forward to reading about it. And I think your surgery and minimal training time excuses you from having to ride your normal daily mileage. In fact, PLEASE don't do that.
Thanks, Jeff!
Yeah, I guess it's not too surprising that Illinois is my most-traveled state so far - it's on a few major ACA routes I've done, plus we lived there for six years and I started tours from there, and finally, even though we live in Kentucky now, if you start a tour here and want to ride west-ish, you pretty much have to go through Illinois.

Jeff,
I love this list! Illinois wins with eight, even beating out Kentucky ;-)
So glad to hear your recovery is nearing an end. Looking forward to reading more on your plans.

Haha. My current idea is to have someone drive me to Rhode Island, to start. From there, make my way through (or more likely around) the highly populated areas to get to Delaware, then to West Virginia. That would knock off three states.
If I'm feeling very ambitious, I could try for a long tour and pick up Oklahoma and Arizona. But that would be very, very ambitious.
Thanks! It's been two months since the surgery, and it's been fine. I just have to get through another boring month.
1 day agoI vote for an exhaustive bike tour of Rhode Island. :)
1 day agoYes, those five look like they naturally fit into a tour. Good luck with the surgery!
