You Can Bike Across America: A Guide to Biking Across the United States Self-Supported

2017

Synopsis

Have you ever thought about biking across the United States self-supported, but all the logistics had you overwhelmed? How do you determine a route? How many miles do you have to bike? How do you find a place to sleep at night? What about packing all the gear you need? You Can Bike Across America is the answer to all your questions, and many more. It is written as a framework to take anyone (yes, you!)—with or without experience in bike touring—through all the necessary checkpoints to plan and execute your own self-supported bike tour across the United States. Having completed my own 3,800 mile journey from Washington to Massachusetts, I believe that everyone can, and should experience this form of adventure and self discovery. Are you with me?
