Wow; that sounds like an amazing trip. I'm so glad it went well. DH and I are getting ready to tour the Katy Trail. It's an inn-to-inn supported tour, but perhaps it'll spark his interest in a self-supported tour. I've gone on other supported tours, but I'm not sure how keen he is to ride day after day.
I look forward to reading more about your tour. Give us a head's up when you post to crazyguyonabike if you think of it.
