hey heyI'm taking a bike across canada pretty soon.I'm already pretty experienced with long distance biking, but I was wondering if any of you did something similar and have any tips/suggestions for an uber-long bike trip. I'm also wondering how the fuck I'm going to survive the rockies and the prairies.
watch out for the fucking mountain lions in british columbia...
I know a couple guys that do weight-saving things, like cutting the handles off their toothbrushes. Is that answer useful or had that sort of thing already occurred to you?
your balls will be sore. chafing will be a problem. I'd do this trip on a recumbant, but on a regular bike? bring a LOT of vaseline
