but adam if your touring all or most of the time i reckon you will get soon fed up with it.if you can do a six week tour every year your a lucky man or even a couple weeks at a time .i certainly could not afford that .
i used to really look forward to the weekends riding with the group the craic as we say here in ireland was great.but when the speed went up i lost interest, now most of the time i cycle on my own i have yet to tour on my own but hopefully i will do this year.
listen at the end of the day you need a roof over your head and food in your belly ,DONT pack your job in until your sure you can have both.i certainly hope things work out for you , your going through a mid life crises i reckon .
