Ideally I would have both new wheels and new paint; new wheels take priority, though. Since I'm selling 75% of everything I own I might find I have the money for both.
Sending the mudguards back as I was a bit pissed when I bought them - if it turns out that I need some, I can buy some out there.
Thinking about carrying stuff. I have in my possession:
I'm thinking currently - tent, sleeping bag and roll can be strapped onto the rack, leaving the seatpack free for clothes/stove. Then I'll procure some sort of small framebag to take some tools/other bits and a bar bag to take food. Perhaps a bigger fuel tank bag (the stem's pretty tall so there's a lot of available room there). I'd like to make my own bags since I have access to an industrial sewing machine and a spare month before I leave.
