I'd make it demand based rather than trying to break it down by every region right off the bat. If enough people ask for a place then make it. High Density places like NYC, SFO, Seattle, Portland, Boston, Chicago, etc... would likely have thier own groups other folks might post to a general NorthEast US or some such. If no one in the Yukon is asking then there wouldn't be one for there... etc.
To be honest I doubt you'd see a ton of interest outside of the urban population centers.
That way if for instance I was taking a trip to London and wanted the skinny on best places to rent bikes, differences in rules of the road, stupid places to ride, what I should see, and who wants to get a pint I could post there. Rather than seeing if someone turns up in the roadie forum who happens to be from there and gives a rat's butt.
that said the NYC forum will be full of fixie riders typing "LOL" over and over again
