Northern Route

There will be two routes for the 42RIDE tour, northern and southern. The Northern route will average 78 miles per day while the southern route is slightly shorter at 70 miles per day. I may be doing the southern route at my leisure in the future so my first choice was to take the cooler, more mountianous, longer route through the north. I was told today that my preference has been granted.  I will be traveling through the following states:

NJ
PA
OH
MI
IN
IL
MO
NE
CO
UT
NV
CA

Some days will be short (50 miles) some days will be long (maybe 100 miles) no days will be "off." Some will be STEEP, and others flat. All will be hard and all will be easy.
