sure you can!
more details needed I guess.
I'll try to throw in some tips as I think of them. This was my second time riding also crewed in '97.
First off, and this goes for any multi day ride as soon as I registered I treated every ride as a training ride. You want to work out all the equipment issues.
Always be asking "what hurts?" and if anything does take steps to fix it, is it technique, fit, equipment? Don't even ask how many gloves I went through till I found the perfect ones. Small problems will become big ones and no pain is going to get better over 7 days.
You want to go into it feeling that everything fits poifectly ;-) More later, gotta get to work
