>>619999It cost about $1000 for all of my expenses, including two new rear rims (the first was a dud), two new tires. and a new bicycle seat. By that part of the trip I had all of my basic supplies down, I was going about 50 miles daily, and I knew what I was doing and where I was going.
Granted, I didn't have a lot of "fun." I bought alcohol on July 4th, but that was pretty much it. My greatest "non-essential" spending probably went towards chocolate milk a few times a week.
Realistically, if you know what you're doing and you don't have to replace too much shit, $10 a day is probably reasonable.
>>619697Worst was probably two/three hours in northern New Jersey. There wasn't a lot of population, a number of the highways had detours, and it was freezing cold. I basically just went due south until I saw advertisements for a McDonald's (about 25 miles later).
>>617427Nashbar. Apparently I put it on wrong. The back rack is on incorrectly as well. I'm really kinda' shitty at this whole thing.
Picture is the view of Monterey Bay near where I stayed with my brother for two months.
