Soren,
I understand that concept. But if we move further west to accomodate the west coast then we make things more difficult for the east coast. Near the middle is the most fair approach I beleive. Lebanon, KS is the geographic middle of the US. I don't know about you but I'm thinking they have probably longer, straighter, flatter roads than here in Illinois. Never thought I'd say that. I like Colorado and all the parts I have seen of it have been beuatiful. But then, how many folks from NH or VT could be expected for that trip. Just my couple cents worth.
Oh yeah, Colorado is much further for the boys across the big pond as well.
