indys comments really touch on the old expression, "You've gotta ride your own ride"
pace, when to stop to eat, take a break, chat with folks, when to start, when to finish, days off......so if you're happy with a 200km or 50km day, it's all cool.
on my recent 6 day trip, was first time in a long time I was on my own, other than the first day, and it was really nice just listening to my body and going with what felt right for all this stuff.
