Are there any destination/route recommendations?
Something not too remote, and preferably in north america. I'm a fairly strong rider.
Thanks!
One of my favorites...and a rather pleasant surprise...was Arkansas (see "Twisting Down the Alley" below). The roads were nice with good shoulders and the riding was pleasant.

Another option would be the KATY trail in Missouri. Very pretty and very easy riding.
