Hi - I am looking for suggestions on good bike tours for beginners. I enjoy my flat to rolling 12-13mph rides and would like to see the US. I can handle 40 miles per day... While I love the outdoors, I am not a camper and would need a good bed and shower (as in moderate to great accomodations - no need to lie). I would be going on my own but I'm not dead-set on an all woman tour. I've seen WomanTours and they look interesting. I looked at Backroads but had a hard time figuring out what levels the rides were. Since this would be my first tour, I wonder if I should do something shorter? 4-5 days? I'm open to suggestions...

Thanks!
