Go here to check out an attempt to set the Guinness record for an across the USA moped trip on a Tomos.

Seems to me that you would go from Jacksonville FL to San Diego CA to shorten the distance... but what do I know?
Actually... Somebody probably WILL use that route to break these guys record if they are successful.
Bet it's got to do with the speed limit. I wanted to do something similar in the new-england area, but could not figure out how to find roads with a 35 mph speed limit.
How would you find a country-wide map with speed limit info for planning such a trip?
I think this is a great idea-- really cool.
I posted about this a little while back under: "TheMopedGuys.Com?"
I listed their route as it appears on their site.

Gee, thanks for spillin the beans, Fred.....
(had plotted THAT route himself, heh..)
S'ok...not like it wasn't damn obvious...but If I ever get it into my head to try such a stunt...yeah, I can beat their time.
There's also some other tricks, like the twin ring-sets and the 40:1 mix...but damned if imma tell em, or why any of em would work, no offense to em, I'd like to see em pull this off....but some day, I might just do it, soooo....
