I also figure if I'm not on the bike for 10hrs... I'd get pretty damn bored sitting around my campsite. I'll bring a book to read, and buy more along the way. I'll also try to read a USA Today each day, or as often as I can find one.
1. How much do you ride every day now? Distance? Time?
2. What is the longest distance you've ridden recently?
3. What's wrong with sightseeing when you arrive at your evening's destination?
4. Have you done
ANY sort of tour before?
