MVF4Rrider and 03BeastCharmer, this stuff sounds awesome, it would be great to see down towns as well as other scenery. I'm writing all this down.

So my big concern is snow then up east. How far could you go up the east coast in late Feb/March before hitting snow? Should I just go up the east coast for a short while then head inland across the middle of the country instead?

I may be staying in Orlando through til April depending on the situation, is this a better time to head up the east coast?

Thanks! I am still getting used to the US seasons since they are opposite to Australia (xmas is the middle of summer back home and about 110+ degrees - god knows why we still give each other cards with santa and snow on them!)

An option other than costal Carolinas is the Appalachian mountains (which run from Georgia through NY all the way to Maine. You could go to the BMW plant in Spartanburg SC, then just a short drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway and take that all the way to northern Virginia (close to DC). You can pick up the Parkway (amazingly scenic) in Ashville NC (art community and home of the Biltmore House and winery--worth spending better part of a whole day there). The Parkway is a slow drive but beautiful. It becomes Skyline Drive in Virginia. Finger Lakes in NY are cool, as is Niagra Falls.
