Hello Don,
You can ship your bike to a LBS in the area before hand and have it tuned for you arrival and then reverse the same procedure for your trip home. That way it will be good to go for your trip. I just returned this weekend from a two week solo self contained tour of the Sierras through Yosemite, Kings and Sequoia NP's starting on the 395 in Mammoth. I just used Map My Ride for the route and it was amazing. No real need to follow bike routes if you are up for some adventure. But if you are going to follow a route, try Adventure Cycling for some maps. Gary On Aug 19, 5:17 pm, Don <donl...@bellsouth.net> wrote: > I am not new to biking but I am new to touring.
