I'm about to start my cross country tour (fly out west in 38 hours) and fully expect to take the first few weeks pretty slow with a day off every 3 or 4 days, maybe two days off...
U235's experience is one that I have heard of many times before. Too hard, too many miles, too little preparation and maybe a less then best fit on the bike. Andy.
