As for holidays, by the end of this week we should know for sure if the dates will be the 4th September to the 19th, which is what we plan on - remind me to let you know when those dates are definite.
[LNR - you're going to be seeing this para about three times, sorry...]
Googling around a number of people seem to have made 80 miles a day without prior cycling experience short of training in the months immediately prior - 60 is probably an underestimate since we wouldn't be going by the very shortest route which is apparently kind of miserable - but it seems quite viable. It sounds like a lot but after all it could be done at an average 10mph with plenty of time for big lunches and beer in the evenings...
