I'd asked some of my cycling friends a few weeks ago if they were interested but didn't get much of a response. Now that I've done this, I have a couple that are interested and I'd be happy to share the road with them! Jenia – my ride to Fredericksburg was a solo experience.

Not a good thing:/<br /><br />Also, look into a solar charger w/ a built in battery pack up as well as multiple USB ports. They are wonderful. Definitely good lessons learned!

Did you do it all on your own? Would a lesson learn be go with a couple of friends next time - for fun and safety - unless you're really searching for some solitude.
