I have never gone very far on a bike, but I have done 80 miles in a day carrying a tent and sleeping bag and food and such. A lot of the really big cities have bus service that includes front bike racks on the buses. Going from home to the Finger Lakes I had to pass through Syracuse, NY and hopped on the bus in Cicero and off in Auburn. Saved 30 miles and the trip only cost $4.50, plus I got out of the worst of the traffic. It pays to be able to repair your own bike and to have the tools you are likely to need if you break down, especially in rural areas where there are not bike shops. I also highly recommend a bell for use in town. Be careful and have fun, and hope for the best. A great resource is The Bicycle Touring Book by Tim and Glenda Wilhelm. My bike is a 1976 Schwinn Super Le Tour, and the book is from 1980, so the two go together well. Nowadays the equipment is different, I am sure. My bike is 10 years older than me. Zach
