Looking at my list of things to bring with me, it's easy to guess I will be like this biker! :thumbdown:

Hello

Well what's wrong with that?
If you can live with just one pair of unterwear and a toothbrush, go for it.
If you think you might need a bit more, take it.

I can't go out there without ALL I NEED TO SURVIVE::cool4:
- 4-person Hilleberg, after a while even this feels small
- two 5cm thick TherArest together 10cm, I'm not getting any younger
- camping chair and table, how else can one enjoy a cup of tea and a sunset
- an umbrella for when it rains while camping
- a pair of old boots for watercrossings
- and .......

One might ask about the weight, well just learn to ride your bike:scooter:

Everyone has different requitements and depending where you're going and how far off the beaten track you're going to get. I've found going for 6 weeks or 6 months I take about the almost same amount of equipment and spares.

Good quality, water proof & warm riding gear. Tools, air & oil filters, tubes, tyre, clutch & break levers, chain & sprockets, spare plug's, light globe's ect. I take enough clothes for a week including 2 pairs of jeans, 7 shirts, 7 pairs of sox n jocks, a good pair of pants & shoes even a tie lives in my shaving kit, you just never know where you're going to end up! last's up to 10 days or longer going commando without doing laundry and it all fits in 1 pannier! 2 man tent, xped mattress, quality sleeping bag that opens up completely, cooking and camping, equipment, 2 torches, lighters, food & water, alcohol & cigars, no chair or table..... yet :-) Fuel, oil, coolant and WD40. Laptop, phone, maps, gloves sunnies and sundries. Also a hand full of small souvenirs & stickers from home for the special people you meet along the way :-)

Good luck with your planning, Cheers Dave.

My winter stuff has been bagged and will be sent home. ie extra jacket and rukka liners sleeping bag. I carry two bags one summer and one two season now its warmer the larger two season is going back. When it was cold I used both.

ExOfficio drawers make perfectly acceptable swim trunks (esp. in black;)
