From Buzzard Bay to Denver you have 2000 miles of fairly flat lands. From Denver to LA you are left with another 1000 miles but this part is more interesting. I did 3 rides from Montreal to Western USA. With that distance I would say that we start from the same place just about. I allways make it as fast as I can to Denver and start riding from there.
From Montreal to Denver I cover the distance in 3 days but let's say you do in in 4 that is 500 miles a day. Fairly easy to do. For long days I allways stop 10 to 15 minutes every hour to hour and a half. It saves your butt for the end of the day. Of course it depends on your butt. Mine is small and sensible.
Back to Denver, if you are there in 4 days, you can easily make it to LA via back roads in 3 days. Roughly 350 miles a day. There are some very nice roads going accross Colorado and Utah. The only desert part would be from Las vegas to LA.
Depending on the time of the year, for the weather, you can go accross on a route more to the south. I used that one to come back before. Your place to Knoxville via I 81, from there I 40 to Albuquerque. That is 2400 miles with 800 left to make it to LA. Once again your desert ride would be from Las Vegas to LA.
Do you use Microsoft Street and Maps ?
