That's the projected departure date out of San Diego.
From today that gives me around 3 weeks to get all the necessary equipment as well as a bike selected, built and then boxed to ship overseas to Paris, France.
Trip duration: 5 weeks.
Return in-time for "Good Friday".
Can I get an XtraCycle in time?
I still have to order EVERYTHING.
What about Pogies?
And the other needed goodies?
Due to, well, the necessary financial component of this venture, I am in the well known scenario called: Crunch time.
In addition to this familiar rushed style format of the prep, this will undoubtedly be a winter pedal journey. In just Paris, France alone, current weather forecast projects rain and snow with temperatures ranging from high 20s to low 50s with 30deg windchill on average.
Needless to say, this adventure will be slightly equipment intensive.
What excitement!
