My second long distance bike tour was what you might call "a total disaster."

The pain was so bad by the time I reached Rawlins, WY, I actually called off the trip and went home early...a decision I do regret after the fact. While the trip was my worst ever, it was a great experience for me. It was my first time ever being away from home on my own for an extended period of time and it was a great learning experience. This is the tour that showed me that there was more to bicycle touring than just riding your bike countless miles across the country.
