I didn’t necessarily plan in which town I was
going to stop each day, but generally started out the day with a few
thoughts as to a short, medium and long option. Some days I would
ride 110 miles and think I could easily ride on, while others I
would ride 60 and feel terrible. I never rode in the dark and
generally started right after rush hour. As I moved further west and
traffic was less of an issue, I would start earlier.
Hotel selection depended on what was available, how much pampering I
thought I might need, if they had Wi-Fi or a free breakfast and the
presence of a hot tub was a plus. After a long day pedaling it was
nice to have a hot shower and a comfy bed.
Below is the list of towns I rode from/to each day and the mileage.
In most instances mapping software will give a shorter, possibly
much shorter distance, but staying off highways, detours and the
like can tack on mileage.
