I would think that $15-20/day would be very do-able if you stay in hiker biker sites, cook inexpensive meals, and don't go crazy on extras. You might be able to even do a bit better if you are willing to eat ramen noodles and instant oatmeal the whole way.
yeah..i thought 100 bucks a day is a lot too. We do plan to stay at hiker/biker sites now since a lot of you guys/girls have recommended it. At first we were planning on doing something that someone in the bay area has done before, which is post around and see if anyone living somewhere near by would give us a place to stay, but...it seemed kinda...yeah
Ramen noodles are defiantly OUT. those things have way too much sodium. itll have us kill our water supply. hahah Cooking is out too...if we cook, 1. we wont have much to eat by the time we're done cooking..2. we'll all end up having some sort of cancer after...
OH and brotherdan talks about stealth camping...which sounds fun...in a way

This is crazy, get this. I'm Vietnamese. And i have NONE absolutely no, nada, zip, no relatives in LA. NONE! I was worried my safety would be an issue. HELL everyone coming with me is scared of safety being an issue.hahaha I'm starting to get scared my parents are getting less some what supportive. We'll probably have check points, where ill txt them once i get there or something.
I will wear a helmet. We will all wear a helmet. Thank you.
