I have cycled thru much of the western US and a bit of the east.

My only organized ride was the Bike Across Kansas, across the southern part of the state. About 500 miles, only one hill higher than a couple hundred feet, most days seemed table flat. Warning - northern Kansas is much hillier.

The Central Valley of California is one huge floodplain, hundreds of miles long and completely flat.

The H101 corrider from Paso Robles to Salinas is pretty flat, though there are a few hills. California District 5 puts out and excellent map showing which roads to ride.
