How to Plan for a Bike Tour Across America
BicycleTrek.com is a site chronicling my cross-country bicycle trek / tour across America that I embarked on in May of 1997 at the age of 33. Want to try bicycling across America or around the world? I'll go through the experience I gained in how to plan a bike tour and hope it is helpful for you. I describe the hows and personal reasons of doing a cross country bike tour, choosing the right touring bike, mapping the tour and have included my daily bike ride journal / mileage log along with photos detailing the miles pedaled, routes and states I bicycled through.
This bicycle trip was an adventure of a lifetime and even now more than ten years later I feel the profound effect it has had on me. Many of the wonderful people I met during that trip have remained close friends that I still see to this day. If you are sitting on the fence about doing a long distance bike tour or bicycling across America-just do it! Start planning your bike tour now. Your life will be changed for the better.
