FAQ about riding a bike across the US
"I enjoyed my ride across the continent so much that afterwards I wanted to produce a short how-to for other potential riders. I posted notices in travelers's newsletters to locate about 150 other people who had ridden their bikes across and I asked them to fill out a questionnaire about their experience. The questions I asked were the Frequently Asked Questions that most transcontinental riders get along the way. Even though these answers were given 30 years ago, I think they are still valid and useful today."
