I've started most of my tours from home, but its getting a kinda old because I usually head east out the same highway and I've cycled the first 200 miles over a dozen times now. I don't mind the ride as much as the more times I ride it the more paranoid I get about the traffic
and the first highway can be a little hairy. But I'll continue to do it because I like to roll out my driveway and finish at the porch, anticipating the cold beer I left in the fridge
.
But, I have driven to start sites and left my truck--works good on loops. I might try cyco's rent a car one way deal--smart.
