Hi Jared - Route looks good. Few thoughts below.
Stay on the highways west of Milwaukee and Chicago to avoid the traffic, unless you just want to see those cities.
Ride across Indiana and Ohio is hot, flat and straight with lots of truck traffic.
Going by Buffalo, you are going to be close to Niagara Falls. Worth seeing if you've never been there.
Little east of Rutland, take 100 North to 302 and then continue east, instead of 91. Or Route 30 North through the Adirondacks, through Lake Placid and then ferry across to Burlington, Vt.
You will be literally minutes from my house going by Portsmouth, NH. Stop in for a break, a meal, or the night as needed. We can talk about route through Mass, RI and Ct then. I would suggest some small changes, and also best times to avoid the traffic. Maybe ride with you for a bit. I'll send you my contact info via PM.

I'm planning on doing a little site-seeing in the Milwaukee/Chicago area.

I have been to Niagara Falls before, but will definitely consider going again depending on how my time is going.

You are not on any toll roads in NY State.
Let me know when you are going to be in my area of NY.
The meal offer still stands.
Before you head off on your adventure PM me and I will give you my cell and home phone numbers.

There are no toll roads in Vermont.

Sent ya a PM and I will be pissed if I find you took some roach pit motel in my neck of the woods!

From Lake George NY to my area is almost exactly the way I rode home from the kawi meet 2 years ago. It took me 1 tank of fuel, but around 5+ something hours. Eastern Speeds and east west roads are slower than out west.

The better side of that is there are more and better places to pull off the roads if you need or want too. Not many 6 inch drops are the right edge like in the west.

Record 'A' the Kenneth Brett School for GPS. I live apx 2 miles from that. (see the pm too)
