So I'm exactly ten weeks minus a day from my departure!! Excited, nervous, a tad scared? All of the above:)
I feel like my training is going well. A couple weeks ago I rode to Horseshoe Bay and back (about 50km) and that was great, except for the fact that I was freezing and soaking wet (note to self, get raingear!) So by great, I mean my muscles felt good, and I wasn't exhausted. On April 7th and 8th I'll be biking to Victoria and back to see how 2 days in a row feels.
In terms of gear, I've been approaching different bikeshops in the area and receiving various responses. I'll give more detail on that when I have a few things sent in stone.
Turns out my full tour will be 6521km. So I've calculated it out, and with about 1-2 days of rest each week I will have to go just under 110km average a day. That will get me to Halifax by August 15, not too bad at all!!
That's really all for now. Once school is done (in two weeks!) things will move much faster!
