The Gear
Below is the make and model of our bikes and a list of the gear we will carry with us. We need to be prepared for all weather. For the cold, wet nights to the hot humid days. Important to keep all our sleeping and spare clothes dry in the case of a downpour or long periods of rain. We think we have all bases covered but until we are out there in a downpour, we won't know for sure!
