Hi y'all,
I'm biking from California to Bike! Bike! 2010 in Toronto! Woooot! Now I just need a few good biking buddies. Are you one of them?
About me & my touring style: I have about 5,000 miles of longer touring experience with 3 different touring buddies. You don't have to have ever toured in your life, so long as you have a functioning bike (and I bet you do!) An average of 50-60 miles a day is a nice pace, leaves time for some reading and picnicking. I've a preference for doing it on the cheap, maybe splurging for a campsite/shower/laundry/hash browns every few days or so. I know a thing or two about bike mechanicry, but not so much that my wheels are true after I've just trued 'em. ;)
If you've any interest in coming along for all or part of the adventure, drop me a line, and we'll interact a bit, see if we might get along for the ride. I'm in Davis, California (on I-80 near Sacramento) and planning to leave more or less around June 15th. The route hasn't been established yet. I'm leaning toward using Google Maps or AdventureCycling.org.
I might also be pedaling down to New Orleans after Bike! Bike!, so if you've interest in that leg o' the journey, that's a potential option, too.

P.S. If you're from the Bike Project in New Orleans, hi! See you next winter!
