Picture
Started: September 9, 2008
Finished: December 9, 2008
Days: 92
Days actually cycled: 77
Distance: 4479.38km (2783.357691082573mi)
Furthest day: 123.83 km
Top speed: 63.89 km/hr







Longest time spent in the saddle: 7 hr, 29 min (doesn’t include stops)
Most calories burned in a day: 1482.2 (totally bogus as it is based on speed. Cruising down a hill at top speeds = what a workout! Hauling the 200 pound bike up an 8% grade for four miles = lazy bugger.)
Average daily expenditure (each): ~$20/day, including all food, accomodation, bicycle repairs, time spent in cities (vegan restaurants, bus passes, tickets to things), etc. Basically, we spent approximately as much on this trip for everything as we did on rent alone when we lived in our apartment.
