After about 10 miles of that, I believe I would have been thinking "OK, well, I've done that." And my fanny couldn't have taken sitting on one of those bike seats any longer than that, anyway. Much of the country where they rode is very desolate, and probably got a bit boring after awhile. Spending day after day slowly pedaling across it wouldn't be my cup of tea. A bit risky for older gentlemen, too. In case of a medical emergency during 95% of the trip, you'd be out of luck. Not to mention having a mechanical breakdown of one or more of the bikes in the middle of nowhere. Now what are you going to do? I'd be curious to know what their contingency plans were for such things. I'm sure it was a grand adventure they'll all treasure, though. (But I doubt any of them would want to do it again.)
