A thousand km per day or 600 miles a day you wouldn't have any time to do anything other than ride, no eating, no sight seeing id find that abit hard to believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't as tightly packed in as us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
