OK then it is settled. You will fly into Chicago head south on Interstate 65 for 2 hours and get past the flat lands. Lay over the first night in Lafayette Indiana were I will meet up with you and personally escort you thru the Wabash River Valley south to the Ohio River to the Mississippi River and deliver you to Dave in St Louis. I have a niece in St. Louis whose husband is a bike guy also.
That will kill your first 2 days in the states.
Heck that time of year it is daylight till 9:30 at night.
Then you can head across Missouri and North to Omaha.
LOL
