This packing "everything" onto the bike is a new experience.....some learned friends suggest you layout everything you think you need, take away half and then halve it again.... I've got a lot to learn. Maybe I'll be posting a few things home!!!! One thing is for sure I wont be getting rid of any safety or communications equipment. I feel like I've got half the bloody office with me , mobile phones, ASUS computer, flash drives, cameras - video and still, lights, the bikes even wired to plug in the equipment. I reckon some smart arse will want to knock up a tax return or a new ad.
We also have a topo GPS and a GPS PLB just in case. Speaking of the GPS navigating on a bike is not easy. I'm trying route notes this time and trying not to forget to reset the odometer (which is also important for judging fuel consumption).
Using the odometer function in the GPS gives me two odometers but neithers any good if you forget to reset them. I'm going to use the dymo to make myself a reminder and stick it on the screen.
Anyway, roll on Saturday I cant wait to cut out.

Russell.
