Thanks for the info.
I have plenty of flexibility, both on dates and direction. It's just that the timing of various things makes east to west preferable, but I'm not locked in to it. I'm just trying to get a sense of things, so I can balance the considerations for a nice trip.
Even the route is totally flexible, except that I have a niece in Denver, and if I ride past, even way past, as in Wyoming, and don't visit, I'll never be forgiven. So, I either go through Denver or keep the trip secret from the family.
