Lots of people go bike touring without any (major) problem. My first bike tour was coast to coast, and it was great! Yours will be too.

On some of their trips you haul your camping gear on the bike, some of the trips are van supported and they haul your luggage in a van from campsite to campsite. I can't think of a better way to build confidence than to ride with a group for a week.
This was my backup idea. After a week of shared spaghetti cooking, you may be ready for a solo trip.
