Touring gear lists w/weights   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #875 of 1716 |
I'm new to the list, coming from a lifetime of cycling (20+ years) on
street bikes to purchasing my new Trek 7.3FX. I'm an avid lightweight
backpacker that is trying to blend the two worlds into "bike-packing"
or touring. In this process I now am the proud owner of a Burley
Nomad and am practicing on learning how to tow with and without a load
in preparation of doing some, if not all, of the John Wayne Pioneer
Trail later this summer. I'm hoping the members of the list can help
me. I'm looking for gear lists WITH WEIGHTS for multi-day tours.


Many thanks and smooth riding,

Terriann
