I just got back from Death Valley. In addition to much of what you'll be carrying, I also carried over 4 gallons of water (initially). And I started with a week's worth of groceries, including things like 2 jars of PB, a 5lb bag of potatoes, 1 lb salami, 1 lb cheese, several pounds of quinoa, nuts, and other snack-ish foods. At some point I'd also crammed a dozen eggs and a pound of bacon into a pannier.
I didn't weigh my fully loaded bike, but when I start to think of the components of my kit, 150 lbs seems like a solid estimate for total rolling weight, less rider. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
