That’s great to hear! I’ve changed a few bits and pieces over the years; if you haven’t already seen it, my current gear list is quite similar for CyclingAbout The Americas: https://www.cyclingabout.com/gear-list-cyclingabout-the-americas/

It really helped a lot and this was the first post I read from your blog. For newbies on the road, this is super helpful! We end up with a similar set up and even managed to bring 5 or 6 books.

Agree that spare links, a chain breaker and lube are 100% necessary for standard drivetrains.

Most drivetrains, though, use steel chains. For those chains it’s great to pack a few spare links, a chain breaker (a.k.a., “chain tool”), chain lube & a chain cleaner.

Nice work, Kelly. I just followed you on Facebook – looking forward to seeing what you get up to!

I know I’m going to end up packing more than I need but I guess it’s better to have more to begin with, because it’s always easy to get rid of things along the way.

We’ve posted our gear list so far on our website http://www.cycletrekkers.com/gear but, will update it again once we actually start cycling.

Not long to go now – can’t wait!!

I agree with you Chcucaandmasha, you have to have a keen sense of what your actually NEED: Our 10kg touring package includes camping gear and clothes for down to -10°C, and cooking for 2 (pot, stove, fuel, condiments, spices, etc.) and an ipad and good camera (a charger) We can travel almost anywhere with that setup. I’ve been travelling light for 35 years, and I can still come back from a 3 month trip and strip another 500g or so. For my september trip in Croatia, I’ve decided to ADD 2kg, so I can Island hop on my own http://gearjunkie.com/klymit-lwd-packraft
