  • Thanks, that's very useful. I'm still not sure a 750 mile tour in October is feasible with just a saddlebag, hip pouch and top tube bag but I like a challenge.

    Hi Tricity,

    I lejoged in 11 days this sumer with a carradice saddle bag and topeak tri bag and bar bag and was fine. By the end, the bar bag was little more than a glorified map holder, and its carrying capacity was surplus to requirements. Next time I do any real distance, it'll be saddle bag and tri bag only. A bit of brutal / honest packing means you really don't need that much stuff at all.

    With saddle bag, tri bag and hip pouch i'm sure you'll be fine. Actually, are you planning to camp or B&B? We stayed in B&Bs / YHAs and this made things much easier.
