However, maybe the lack of road shoulder plus the high tempatures of June would suggest a more northern state or higher altitude might be in order.

Don't get me wrong, I am ready to tour anywhere. I just want to do a multi-day ride for the love of pete!
So Kentucky is, without a doubt, an option.

The other thought I have is west to east, mountains to coast, a ride across North Carolina.

But as I am one and the brothers are two, I may in fact be...outnumbered here. But does anyone have an alternative ride that would out-do my ideas?
