It's not entirely out of the question down the track but at the moment no. I do enjoy roadtrip docco's & the stuff you guys do to get from A to B with the minimum amount of kit. I'm a fan - keep on keeping on - I may catch all you guys up one of these days!
I basically pack a tent - Macpac Citadel, sleeping bag - minus 7 waterproof Mountain hardware, sleeping mat (down air mattress - Exped)
A OR helium tarp and rope, a tarp to sleep on when it isnt raining (I hate tents and love stars)
A tripod chair and small tarp to lay on by the fire when it all gets too much after a hard days ride and a stomach full of beer and drambuie. Too hard to stay on the tripod stool.
1 pair of jeans, thongs, thermals, 2 t shirts, 3 under gloves, 3 gloves, 2 over gloves, 2 spare socks.
2 beanies (1 thermal), foooood, beeeer, Drambuie and a jaffle iron.
Riding gear, crappy boots with Neos waterproof over boots, BMW something or other pants and jacket, polarfleece vest with thermals top and bottom.
'turtle fur' neck warmer hoodie thing, Rjays open face and scott goggles.
BMW rain suit.
A tonne of tools and spares and bitsnpeices of wire random bolts and spacers and wide electrical/duct tape and cable ties and rope, an inner tube and plenty of patches and spare glue, valves, a good pushbike pump. (everything always breaks or falls off)
10l jerry can of fuel plus the sub tank for fuel, oil.
Just a question on the type of gear you have stowed on the Postie?

Hey GregStart with a short and easy trip, that way you realise it's easy. Then tackle some hard stuff. Like changing tyres, the hardest part is deciding to do...
