Riding Across America
Does anyone know of any good companies that do supported rides across America?
I found https://www.abbike.com/, but the ride I want to do starts too soon.
I'd like to get this done in about a month, averaging over 100 miles a day. I'd even do a charity ride if I could find one that didn't take two months.
Anyone have any ideas? I guess I'm not really into "touring." I don't like carrying a bunch of junk and I like to keep the pace pretty fast.

A friend is doing the abbike Fast Ride Across America. Sounds like a good ride and well-supported. I would think that a later ride (this one starts end of April - Irivne California to Boston in 31 days of riding plus one rest day and 3400 miles) could get hot and less pleasant across the deserts and midwest.

For a fast supported trip check out Pac Tour at www.pactour.com I rode with them in '91 and it was a great ride - well supported and run by cyclists who know what they're doing. This years trip is 25 days in September - San Diego to Charleston, Va averaging 120 miles/day
