Below is
a list of the gear that we took and used for our trip, which we
hope you find helpful if you are planning on taking up bicycle touring.
This gear was split over three bikes, so if you are cycling solo or with
only one other person you may want to reduce some things. Scott and
Nadia rode with front and rear panniers, while Adam pulled a B.O.B Trailer
behind his bike.
