Copy the unencrypted wallet.dat to multiple usb drives.
Still you need to be wary on keylogger not just now but any point in the future you use the USB drive.
Say you store 100,000 BTC to those private keys over the next three decades. You plug the USB drive in 2042 for the first time. The inject computer instantly detects an unencrypted wallet.dat circa v0.6 client and makes a copy, transfers the balance to the attackers computer all in <1 sec.
Honestly if you want offline security use offline security and forget the USB drive.

What is the simplest way to get my bitcoins securely onto multiple usb sticks?
I don't want to futz around with extra operating systems or offline computers. I don't want to have to remember long passphrases. I am okay with the risk of assuming that I don't have any keyloggers on my computer at this moment. I don't need to be able to spend them anytime soon. What I want is basically a bunch of public addresses I can email to myself that I can safely send bitcoins to and have no worry of them disappearing in a computer crash or future hacking event.
Thanks.
