For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.
Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Lay all the things you need to take out. Take half of them and twice the money. Happy days. No - but it’s pretty easy to do laundry underway, so you will use fewer clothes than you expect. Still your ass or feet won’t thank you if you re-use sweaty cycle shorts or sock so ideally two pairs. Wear on wash one. And long trousers/shirt to wear on the evening. Feet can go in sandals (also good for dodgy showers) which will let them breathe. Oh and have fun. That’s the bit I sometimes forget.
