Riding Around America: the Itinerary
Just a few more days until I leave and I am busy tying up loose ends and getting things ready. Today I downloaded the timetables for every route and added up the mileage. The distance for each segment is listed below with the grand total at the bottom. In the end I'll have travelled nearly 8000 miles!
