Update on the coast to coast trip in spring '25

When considering all findings from my Bangkok to Phuket trip last week I have to adjust the planned trip across the USA. There is no point in testing and not incorporating the findings of the test. As a consequence I will shorten the trip and go down to Key West. This saves 1600 km distance and 9.000 m altitude gain. In exchange I can plan just above 4,5 hours riding per day. This should be possible even over 2 months.

It removes pressure from daily stage length and avoids difficult traffic situation through large cities on the east coast.

Depending on the experience I might plan a second trip at another time. But this is " future considerations". Now is the time to concentrate on making this coast to coast trip an unforgettable and fun experience.
