Welcome to the forum. I am twice your age and have done a bit of touring but primarily in the USA and a bit in Canada.
The distances in Europe are not quite as staggering as they are here.
My spouse and I are celebrating 30 years as a tandem bicycle team, and yes, we rode single bikes before that. We are not quite as fast as we were and our distances are a bit shorter, but we are still out there pedaling!
Sounds like you have an ambitious schedule!
Tot ziens!

Hi zonatandem,
I see you know some dutch words, and I am a bit surprised about that. How does it come you know Dutch,... if I may ask?
Your tandem pedaling is very admirable! My dad has your age, and together with my uncle (77 years old) he still makes bike tours in France once a year. They travel each time for a week, and do some 60km on average per day. They sleep in good hotels because the gastronomic aspect of their tours is even important as the cycling itself
