As I stated elsewhere, I didn’t start riding again until April 2015 living near Minneapolis, Minnesota.  By the close of the 2016 riding season (November) I had logged a respectable number miles for 2015 and 2016 with the vast majority of those miles crisscrossing Minnesota and in Wisconsin on state highway  35 on the eastern side of the Mississippi river and a little bit of Iowa on the western side of the Mississippi.  So, at the end of 2016, I have only ridden in three states.  Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa, as shown in yellow in the map.  My goal is to have ridden motorcycle in all 50 states.
