First congratulations on a fantastic adventure! You have a great time if you take the time to make sure you're prepared. Firstly, to mention a rookie. I hope this does not mean they do not travel much. The general rule is to ensure that travel is mounted in the weeks before going to at least as much as you intend to travel on the first day. For example, ensure that they are at least 100 miles per week if you want to travel 100 miles a day. If you plan to GO 65 miles per day during your 8 days, you should put it on your bike each week before the visit. Two reasons. The first is fitness. You will not be spent 30 miles on the day of 65 miles. It's no fun for you or the rest of the group. Secondly, The Kinks you want you out of his bike and everything is comfortable and set the way you want. After a few hours in the saddle can be surprising what Not exactly where he belongs. Maybe the bars should move an inch or two down or up. This kind of thing. The second thing I suggest, is an intimate knowledge of your bike. Make sure you know the parts and how they work and how they are separated and all. Carry Tubes parts and tires and make sure someone in your group has the tools and basic key and an Allen wrench to get things squared immediately if there is a problem in the field. My advice: Stay calm, comfortable and dry. Powder security bits are believed to get sweaty and uncomfortable there on the road. Wear clothes with seams so as not to confuse the wrong way. Avoid cotton clothing will suck the sweat and keep for long. Eat regularly. If you have traveled long distances before it is surprising how many calories you burn in a day. Not eating will make you sick humor. If Your friend is in a bad mood for a snack bar. Bring lots of water. Pack as lightly as possible, we must throw every pound you. Above all have fun! Roll with a group of travelers must be a load of fun. Keep a positive attitude, enjoy the scenery and talk to your friends. I think it will take some time fantastic. Good luck and happy riding!
