And even though I have been to a lot of places and drove on a lot of interstate, there is nothing worse (that I have seen) than driving in Little Rock, Ar. You couldn't pay me to drive on the freeways in Little Rock on a bike that would go 200 mph, much less a GZ.
So I could not even Imagine going to California and driving on those Big "Superslabs", thats just crazy. I think I will Stick to good Ole Hot Springs. Of course I am from an even smaller Arkansas town (Monticello) Where the worst traffic you will see is trying to find a parking spot at Wal-Mart.

Here's the "trick" to achieve max. flexibility. Many Interstates roughly followed an existing US route (or routes) when they were layed out. If you choose a US route that parallels an Interstate, you will usually find a road that is in excellent shape because there are virtually NO trucks on it......and darned little other traffic either. You can enjoy the ride at 50-60 mph and still get back to "civilization" if you need to just by going back over to the Interstate which is usually 5 miles or less away.
