Nope. I'm a loner and happy alone. Music is nice. But I just enjoy being outside and free and moving. I always train alone. I can go weeks and have without taking to anyone.
The thing that amazed me at the start was the mix of people, from skinny tanned guys to older less fit but just as energetic and willing guys. Anyone is capable with some mental strength. Or anyone is capable of trying and trying is all that counts. Guys = men and women.

I am only 57 (well 58 in a month) and would hope I could do a 100 mile a day ride over reasonable terrain for quite a distance provided I slept in decent beds. Even slowly, that is 10 hours a day on the bike and 14 hours to recover. It was the lack of sleep and absence of recovery that struck me about your adventure. Not sure I could manage that.
Riding alone, and alone 24 hours a day, didn't the lack of company get to you?
