Sounds like it's going to be a fun but hot ride. Make sure you stock up on gels and other types of nutrition to keep your body energized. The other thing to consider is the weight you'll be carrying. If ur rear load is too heavy and ur tires are under inflated and not up to the challenge, you'll be getting a heck of a lot of flats.

I converted a Surly Ogre 29er into a tour bike. I'm using WTB slicks, 2.3" and it's a great ride. No wobble, handles heavy loads with the bigger wheels and tires.
