The most miles in a day thread got me to thinking I should post this for comment.
I am buying the America as a present to myself for some above and beyond duty stuff, and I planned an 11-day, 2,000 mile, back road itinerary with several 1-day stops at friends and family. I'm 60, in reasonable shape, but worried about my back. The trip won't happen until later this summer. Any comments on prep and equipment?
The itinerary is Frederick, MD to Binghamton, NY to Danbury, CT to Kennebunk, ME to Toronto and back home. Any of you live along the way, wave to me as I go by. I'll be the old guy grimacing and holding my back.
