And, yes... I have my bug spray with DEET ready in my handlebar bag.
Do not rule out stopping at a fast food restaurant on the way to save time. Setting up camp when you are not used to it takes time, showers take time, etc.

I always ride pretty slow after a big meal, but smaller meals do not slow me down. French fries always give me good energy for riding.

Have a great time.
