3,200 kilometers (2,000 miles) – the lowest estimated distance Tour XIII participants will travel in two rented minivans between Denver and Dallas (the route will include several stops and four overnight stays in hotels and motels) + additional kilometers/miles during trips in Colorado would probably make Tour XIII the trip with the longest distance covered by car ever
