1) Do you have any touring experience?
2) Where's the fire?
Yes, I have touring experience. I would likely forward a box of clothes to my hotel as I have a few functions in NY. 200 in two days is easy and 4k in 100 miles is nearly flat. Biggest climbs would likely be in MD, then in PA-up out of the Susquehanna river valley. I would carry my Osprey hydration pack, wore that on a 180 (one day) ride to Ocean City Md from Baltimore. Anyway, back to suggested routes.
