Cool and Interesting

At the end of the day I’d like to lean back and sit comfortably.

So I’ll cut them off. Initial weight is 300g.

What are some other things I’d like to improve, based on the recent bikepacking trip that almost ended in disaster?

Next time:

• Bigger tent to sit in
• Bring warm hat for sleeping
• Smaller toiletry kit 
• Fewer electronics 
• Robust bike rack
• Towel fastener hook and loop so big towel can function as a pareo
• Net outer bag for drying things while riding
  
• Comfy chair
  
• Waterproof baggy for phone
  
• Stronger back light
  
  Make dyneema baggies
  – rain gear
  – black slides
  – wider, shorter green baggy for tent

What worked well

Green lunch bag

Nalgene water bottles with maltodextrin and electrolytes

Squishy bottles with water

Hard-boiled eggs

Precooked dinner to eat on the train

Reserve train spots for the bike 30 minutes early

Exped straps on backpack for helmet and to attach to rack

Matress plus evazote
