Plane tickets in hands!

We got our plane tickets!

This means we have a final start date for our trip (was about time! haha).

Here is or itinerary: fly from Porto Alegre to Sao Paulo April 02, 6:00am. At 11:10am, fly from Sao Paulo to Orlando, FL, and arrive at 7:15pm:


Then we rent a car at the airport and go driving to Charleston, SC. This will be a 7 hours trip including a 30 mins stop to rest, use restrooms, etc.


We are planning to drive on our arrival, and get in the hotel in Charleston around 3:00am of April 3rd. In the afternoon of April 3rd, we will get our bicycles and look for the remainder of the equipment we will need.

On April 4th, the plan is to do a test trip. We will ride for 1 hour and a half to a public location and test our bicycles, tents, GPS, etc. Then return to Charleston.

If everything is OK, we will sleep early to be ready to get started for real. On April 5th, early in the morning we will get started and ride west towards our first stop on the way.

Cheers,
Eduardo
