Bike Touring Camp and Clothes List
So a lot of people want to know what I’m carrying in my trailer. Bike touring is a lot different from hiking and I also get to split some of this stuff with my touring partner Mike. My average dry base weight when on the PCT was about 12 lbs. So far this list is over double that. You can see my bike touring gear list here. Personally, I think this needs to be cut down as I need to add 10 plus pounds of food and water to the list.
