some questions for upcoming ride from Siena-London via Alps made without reading the previous 38 pages so boo me for being a fanny:
best on bike charger / power pack for garmin 705
good bar bag that isnt' fucking massive (think more 1-2l, not 10)
other than wearing baselayer/gabba/armwarmers should I be planning on legwarmers and/or winter tights for riding the alps in early-mid Oct?
My only lights are knogs. Decent but not fucking crazy £ lights that will actually give some night visibility sans streetlights?
I've a pair of 32c Conti topcontact winter tyres that are more like 28c. Is is just stupid touring on these? I'm skint so if it's not a huge disadvantage I'll probably chuck em on and could be handy if the weather is sketchy.
Not planning being very loaded beyond the min and may stay in hostels rather than camp.... is it worth humping D/min D with me for non-bike nickage?
there will no doubt me more inanity from me to follow...
