Hi Everyone,



Next year my girlfriend and I are planning on cycling America coast to coast for charity, one tiny problem, I'm not really a cycling buff and have a few questions;



1. What bike would anyone recommend? (looking to spend between £800-£900)

2. West-East or East-West? (Leaving end of may)

3. What Route?

4. Should I Camp?

5. What equipment/clothing should I take?

6. Things to see along the way?

7. Where should I avoid?

8. How much money should i take (£/$)



Sorry for all the questions, Any other advice would be very helpful



Many Thanks

Phil
