There is currently a reasonable fare to SFO from DEN (under $200) that could be stretched with a local run around SFO (PSP, LAS, LAX, SNA, SBA, BFL, etc) for getting a few extra 500 mile hops. But I've never tried to do an international MR, and from what (little) I know, the rules change significantly: there are max mileage limitations, for example, right? And summer fares even from SFO are going be lousy.
Also, there goes any chance of doing the MR in < 36 hrs, as I'd been hoping.
Ah well.
