Tendonitis in achilles tendon, a 450 mile bike tour in 9 days: can I do it?

Hi gang, I have a recumbent bicycle, and tendonitis that is not letting me walk on the foot unless I have the big toes-to-knee boot on. Should I just stay off the foot until the ride starts on June 4? What therapy and treatment can I do for it to speed healing? I have crutches too if that would help. I also have indomethacine to help keep inflammation down now and during the ride.

The tour is very important to me, plus I've invested a few hundred dollars in entry fee, supplies, etc, so while I don't want to go if I'm going to permanently damage something, I want to explore every chance to go.

Thanks!
