Congratulations, Trek (er Mondonico)! That's a lot of miles (and discomfort) for one week, but the cause is worth it.

You mention wanting 7 pairs of shorts next time -- does that mean there are no facilities to wash out your clothes each day? When I've toured I've used just 2 pairs of shorts and jerseys, which worked out well packing-wise, but in the humidity of Hawaii meant that from day 3 forward I always had very damp shorts -- yuck.

Anyway, great job! Is your picture anywhere on the event web site?
