Perhaps part of the desire to go solo or in a group might also relate whether deep down you are an introvert or an extrovert ?

Generally introverts enjoy their own company better than extroverts, but tire more quickly of engaging in small talk with others than extroverts.

Extroverts on the other hand tend to have a need to seek connection to others more regular than introverts and usually feel uncomfortable more quickly when being alone.

I tend towards extrovert and would have previously had a strong preference for duo+.

However, having spent 3 months in Africa alone last year i'd be a strong solo if going again. Takes a bit to 'find yourself' at first but being along just means you meet and chat with loads of new people you may not have otherwise engaged with - turned out to be a real highlight of the trip and i felt i grew as person through the experience too.

Solo or duo, you are gonna have a lot of fun. Like everyone said just talk to people and see if you can find someone you get along with. If not, riding a bike to the sunset by yourself is satisfying enough imo. Have fun on your trip!
