I daydream from time to time about such a ride.

I know you've all been waiting on tetherhooks for a follow-up... I decided to take the train to California and spend 3 weeks at the Redwoods National Forest. Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

I'm always up for a ride. Biking to Indianapolis in a month or so with a few people. If you wanna get together for some longer rides, hit me up.

I can't commit, but there is a great looking path along the Erie canal in New York state. How to get there is another problem. For me, maybe someday. (retirement)

Katy Trail ---solo is no problem just take what you need. Sunday M onday and Tuesday has most of the towns closed. I rode (July)from Kansas to St Louis using the katy ( the first 50 was Hiway) If you like wine and histroy it is very enjoyable. Take chain lube as 225 miles of gravel is a little hard on the drive chain. The trail is mostly flat with a small grade from Boonville west. Several times I went 30 miles without seeing another Human.

Check out the Adventure Cycling Association. (<a href="http://www.adventurecycling.org/">http://www.adventurecycling.org/</a>) They sponsor a lot of tours, but are really a nice clearing house for information about touring in the US. They also have a number of really great maps available so that you could create your own tour.

Well, I won't have a lot of commitments on my time, so it doesn't have to be two weeks exactly.<br />

I am sure people still tour at that time of year around Lake Michigan, but I would not enjoy camping in an average low of 40 degrees. So head South: How about <a href="http://www.bikelib.org/route66/" target="_blank">Route 66 bike trail</a> to St Louis (average low in mid october: 50 degrees) and from there <a href="http://www.bikekatytrail.com/" target="_blank">the Katy trail</a> to Kansas City.

Route 66 is an on-road bike route which takes the back roads of rural Illinois; the Katy trail is a rail-to-trail conversion, which means limestone. (haven't done it yet, but it high on my list of tours to ride). Friends who have done it told us that it has a high cuteness factor (small towns, b&b's, vineyards, etc)<br />
