10 days, we planned our route to be exactly 1000 miles although the official route is a lot shorter that that. We just plodded along not thrashing it and could have easily knocked 2 days of that. Did on on road and MTB's "with slicks".

8 days, i planed my route to 1200 miles exactly, originally the official route can be shorter that is. I did quite a bit of it backward on the bike and didn't have to rush as i could have cut it down by 3 days. Did it on a rusty old bmx with "slightly flat tyres"   :daumenhoch:
