Crossing Rockies in September/October?
I'm planning on biking across country fully self supported, starting mid-August (one of my childhood best friends is getting married so can't miss or start earlier =)
My current plan is to do the Transamerica route with some small modifications, going East to West (partly because of some wanderlust to reach the West).
I think I'll end up averaging 60-80+ miles a day, allowing me to hit the West coast in probably 60 or so days.
My biggest concern is crossing the Rockies in September. Do people think this is a terrible idea or worth the adventure? Any experiences about crossing the Rockies later in the fall would be super helpful!
