Motivation.

I have a question that is niggling my mind. I saw a couple of clips on youtube of people touring across the country of Canada and Usa. even going as far as from Alaska all the way to Argentina. I've read some biography of people touring the country, and I've been bitten by the wanderlust bug big time. My question is when you do go on one of those long distance tours, what motivate you to keep going? Its a mystery for me because I truly love cycling for hours and hours, but its different when you are cycling on a city pathway where the scenery isn't the same one hour from now. When you are cycling on a highway going to God knows where, it can become monotonous especially if you ride across the prairies. How do you keep going and keep sane?

A dreamer (Wondering if I am willing to take the bait and get out of my car and on my bicycle for some long distance travelling)
