>>2757430What do you mean sustain? If it is 5 days, 200 miles/d is nothing. If he's car camping it'll also be very cheap even if he buys permits for NF camps ($30 max each night). I'm guessing OP is just going up one of the coasts and hitting the local towns or cities along the way each day. It shouldn't cost all that much really. Even hotel wise he could probably do $100-150/night as long as he's staying on outskirts, which imo isn't a big issue if he's just going to explore in the day, ride to hotel and sleep at night.
If he's doing a destination trip it may be a bit different, say 500mi out, 500mi back. (easy day each of those if that's the case).
