don't know where to start
lots of choices, from Ohio head north to the east shore of lake Michigan on up to Sault Ste. Marie into Canada around north shore of Lake Superior back into states. Travel to Duluth many things to see. Pick a route to Fargo ND. I-94 to Medora, ND, take in the musical, south to Black Hills of SD take advantage of the many things to see there. West to Sheridan, WY cross Big horn Mts. To Cody, WY visit museum. Onward to Yellowstone with side trip Jackson Hole, WY go white water rafting if you like. Back north to Glacier NP and Going To The Sun Highway westward to Cascades NP side trip to Grand Coulee Dam, go on the tour if you have time. On the Road again to the coast visit Seattle enjoy a Starbucks visit Mt.Olympis, space needle and other points of interest this is as far as I can go I will leave the rest up to your imagination. Have a great ride.

Trip help
For 15 years, I drove charter buses across the country. May I suggest googling "Freedom Rock" in western Iowa just off of IH-80?
Enjoy.

For that matter, almost any non-Interstate US highway, and many state and county roads, will lead you through the unvarnished real American landscape. But once in awhile even a US highway is nothing but semi-urban blah such as US 40 in Utah.
Google Street View and Google Earth are superb tools for planning. If you're thinking about a particular road take a virtual ride first with either of those programs and you'll soon figure out if it's a road you want to ride or not.
Any one of the non-Interstate routes across the Rockies in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Colorado, or New Mexico will make for a great ride. The geography of the landscape varies so much it's hard to comprehend it all.
Decide what sorts of things you want to see, Google them, and make your choices. You'll just have to accept the reality that 80 to 90% of what you'd like to see isn't going to fit into your trip, and you will be bored by some of what you have to travel through in order to see what you want to see. Do what you can and don't fret about the rest. The result will be one helluva good time!
Much if not most of US36 in Kansas is the old Pony Express route.

ROUTE 34 IN COLORADO.....
i rode it west to east and almost threw-up.... i don't like 'heights'.... and most the entire way i was on the edge of 2000+ foot drop-offs.... scray as crap, but EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL.... i'd ride it again, but east to west, so i'm on the INSIDE..... you pickup RT.34 in ESTES PARK, CO.... AWESOME AWESOME RIDE....
bring your NATIONAL PARKS PASS with you, otherwise it'll cost you $15..... which btw, is more than worth it... camera, don't forget your CAMERA....
ANOTHER; and if you don't believe the world is FLAT.... after Rt34, pickup US70 WEST and take a left turn onto Rt.24 i UTAH..... close your eyes, tie your handlebars, fall asleep and wake up 75 miles later in Hanksville, UT.... my good God, you'll be a FLAT EATHER after that ride..... WOW...! ! !
