"Will A over the course of the trip slowly build the same strength=stamina=milage as B towards the end and thus be as powerful after lets say 30-60 days of cycling?" - Probably not. Rider A will likely make bigger gains, but Rider B will continue to improve as well, probably just not as fast proportionally.
"Or will he keep struggling with his strength=stamina=milage due to the fact that his body simply needs more recovery than just 1 nights sleep?" Maybe, maybe not. I used to schedule a day off, once a week but ended up feeling like I never need it. I always ride at whatever pace feels right. If I want to stop, I do. If I want to picnic, I do. Part of the joy of touring without a fixed end date.
Or even worse: Will his milage drop? Are you asking, will he burn out?
Too many variables.
What's the reason for this question?
