Touring Equipment

20l is a lot. The BRP saddlebags use 13l drybags and they have quite a bit of structure to stop them swinging around and to make it narrow where your legs will be.

what do plan to put in it?

I suppose the answer is as much as possible!!

A buddy and myself will be pitching at camp sites, he will be carrying the tent on a front rack. We plan to cycle for 5-7 hours depending on the day and route and pitch up at a camp site and either go in to village/town or walking in the evening.

• Sleeping bag,
  
• liner,
  
• casual cloths (shirt, jumper, linen trousers, 2x pair socks, 2x pair boxers),
  
• Cycling cloths (jersey, base layer, pair socks, bibs)
  
• espadrilles,
  
• micro towel,
  
• toiletries (tootbrush, soap, deodorant roll-on, sun screne F30/50, chamois cream),
  
• first aid kit,
  
  
  

.......Possibly some other thing I have not considered yet, I will be laying everything out next weekend........

In a handlebar bag will go phone, money, tools, passport. I will lay everything out and check through others list to make sure we have everything and will post up the final list with photos in a weeks time.
