I have sorted out the detour with Bike the US for MS.  I will still be cycling the Atlantic Coast during the same days as originally planned.  The difference now is that I will be riding self-supported.  The only assistance I will be receiving from Bike the US for MS will be maps and recommended locations for overnight camping.  I know that I can do it self-supported since I completed the Pacific Coast five years ago.  The only difference is I had planned to camp then, but never did.  This time I do plan to camp.  We will see how that goes.

So I am on for departure on April 20, 2023 from Florida heading north to Maine.
