My Dad's 80th birthday is coming up in mid May 2013 & I thought it would be a great opportunity to do some real touring on ol Black Beauty.
That said, after putting together what seems like a pretty good route I thought I'd ask if any of the BA members in the SW US could provide some idea of road conditions (rough/poorly maintained US highways & Interstates) along my planned route re:
from Whicita, KS to Liberal, KS via US54 (super 2 lane)
from Liberal KS to Grants, NM via US54 (super 2 lane)
from Grants, NM to Needles, CA via I40/I66
from Needles, CA to Bakersfield, CA via I40/I66
I have heard that I40/I66 West out of Oklahoma City is in terrible condition & also that US54 from Greenwood, KS to Tucumcari, NM is also pretty rough.
Any additional info would be a help in my trip planning.
