Make sure your bike is in great working order. We will have a fairly comprehensive set of tools along. The air can be a little dry, so your bike should have the capacity to carry a minimum of two water bottles. Weather can be variable this time of year. Temperatures will most likely be low seventies or high sixties during the days, so bring some tights and a riding jacket.
Rain is unlikely, but possible.
You are given a map and road log each day. Bike at whatever speed you like. Our tours generally have 10-20 participants, so odds are there will be someone that likes to bike at your speed. Our support vehicle will be waiting at the campgrounds with your gear. If you don't know how to change a flat, it's a good time to learn, and we will gladly give you a lesson the first night.
