Touring Gear
About this List
I've put this list of supplies together in order to document what works and what doesn't. I am not sponsored by any of the company's who products I discuss below, nor was I even familiar with a great many of them before the start of this trip. It is my hope that this list can provide a starting point for other individuals interested in embarking on a long distance bike tour.
Not including the bike, I am currently carrying over 75lbs of gear. As you can imagine, this gets rather heavy, and I want to have a place where I can document both the benefits and the problems that I have with all of my supplies. If it can't justify its weight, I shouldn't be lugging it around!
