• Ok so it turns out 2 dry bags will carry less than I thought haha. Have settled on this as final list:

    Handlebar bag:
    Bivvy, sleeping bag, silk liner. Sleeping mat and (maybe) tarp tied on top.

    Saddle bag:
    Down jacket, shorts, merino t-shirt, thermal top and bottoms for night, boxers, thermal socks, thermal gloves, microfibre towel, wool hat, spare bibs/jersey/base, phone charger and charging block, soap, head torch, camping knife. Flip flops tied on top.

    I'll take 1 bottle of water and put 2 tubes, multitool, brake pads and quick link in bottle on second cage, have a frame pump.

    Phone, rain cape, cycling gloves, arm and knee warmers in jersey pockets.

    Hoping that will get me round the 5 days. We'll be passing through small towns so will eat along the way and pick up bags of cans to drink each night.

  • I would add a musette or tote bag in the saddle bag or jersey pocket. Doesn't take much space and can be really useful to carry cans or any supplies around on the bike
