so ill be riding from SF-LA in a couple of weeks. this will be my first tour lasting more than a few days, so i wanted to put my plans out there and see if there is anything i should reconsider or any glaring holes im missing, or anything i still need to buy, while there is time. i've blocked out 8 days. gonna try to camp only. im mostly following "bicycling the pacific coast", but if there are preferable route options, i'd be interested in those too. i know people do this without any preparation, but i have some time, and i like thinking about it.
taking my hunqapillar with a carradice camper, acorn tool roll, jandd mini mountain panniers on the front, and a basket that i'm trying to leave open for food and incedentals along the way, maybe with a soft sided cooler. *rear rack/camper bag* tent sleeping bag/pad alcohol stove (considering bringing my biolite stove for the charging capability, but it's pretty heavy) bowl/utensils/matches/cooking stuff lock towel camera *tools/maintenance * 2 tubes, levers and patch kit multi tool crescent wrench pump *front panniers * 5 t-shirts overshirt 2 musa or musa-like pants 2 shorts underwear/socks rain jacket packable down jacket sandals toiletries chargers/ipod nano i put this list together, and it is basically the same as my s24o list, but with more clothes. im especially interested in what things beside clothes, i should be adding for a longer trip. also interested in what people do for security while going through cities with a lot of stuff strapped to their bikes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
