My partner did cycle across North America.

He cycled both south and north between Astoria, OR & Gold Beach OR. Each direction was on slightly different roads.
One thing for certain that I do remember his comments to me since he was emailing /phoning me each evening, was the amount of fog when setting off in early morning.
