At 400 kms/day, about a week (just under 7 days) of riding. If we pushed one day, we could have a light day the next. The green pins indicate population areas at around 400 kilometre intervals where a stop would be possible.
Ideal travel time would be late summer, as the nights are getting cooler and the bugs are dying down. One of the last two weeks of August would be good. September would be spectacular, though cooler, especially if the colours were starting to turn.
