As long as I have time left in this world, I have time - no real demands on my time, thank heavens. There's going to be a learning curve. I can only hope to keep it as shallow as I can!

But I don't mind a hard trip, sometimes - that's where we get the good stories, right?

I'm ok with taking it as slowly or as fastly as I need to, as long as I don't break myself. (if my docs read that last part they'd be rolling their eyes so hard it would be audible).
Looking at warmshowers, if the folks I'm thinking about would be available to host, it would be about 35-40 mile days, which is imminently doable, I think. I can see that as being too short, soon. I look forward to that.
