Coast to Coast via back-roads

Wondered if there was such a thing, and if anyone has made the run.

Could be a super cool thing to do - go coast-to-coast via back-roads etc,
never hit pavement except for fuel/ water/ grub.

 

In terms of pavement, you could do the “old” Rt 66. Or give US 20 a shot.

But if you really mean no paved roads, good luck. Never heard of/seen such a route. I’m sure it could be (mostly) done with enough effort, but you’re talking a lengthy trip full of a ton of detours and private property.

Edit: Route exists, I was wrong.

 

Yes there is.

Lots have done it and some are documented on this forum.

 

I once went from connecticut to quebec all by back roads with my 73 datsun pickup....took me nearly 3 times longer.

 

In late June I flew to Roseburg, OR, bought a TRD OR and drove west to Port Orford before heading East. Five weeks later I arrived at Kitty Hawk, NC. I suggest this timeframe, going west-to-east as the western wildfire season is typically, not yet in full roar … and the snow in the Colorado Rockies will be mostly melted.

Several groups on Facebook.

 

Runs through my front yard. Literally.

 

I’m very interested in doing this. Maybe we could get a big group ride planned for the future

 

I'm retired, got nothing to do, except I'm a house-boy for the wife. She works and I keep the pets up, keep the cars
gassed, sweep / vac / mop / shop / and I've become her personal chef. Damn good cook too LOL. I need to win the
lottery so I can have all that taken care of and then do what I want to do.
