One other thing to remember is that America's infrastructure today isn't what it used to be; some major highways are comparable to riding in a back alley and if you are familiar with that particular stretch of road, it can make for a pretty unpleasant experience.
I remember one time riding through Oregon after about 13 hours on a bike going through a pass at night with lots of road construction. I couldn't tell where the cones were veering (and they were going all over the place on a winding road), there was no passing and I had a semi bearing down on my ass. The kicker: The roadsign warnings were a picture of a wavy road with a motorcycle flying through the air.
Rather not do that again.
