Just a romp after work

Gary, EmptySea,

Thanks for the info. I bought the bike only three days ago and am thinking of some trips, and browse the web back and forth about some equipment ideas. I figured I need some camping equipment, small easily packed . I am not a sophisticated guy and will go with absolute minimum. For a start I think of small one-person tent, blanket, something to make a hot tea in the morning and fishing rod.

Looks like you live in great area where you can hop on your bike, ride for 30 min. and be in the middle of wilderness, and you can do it after work and not wait for the weekend.

advrider although it is not nearly as friendly as this forum is, there is a wealth of information on adventure riding. Especially when it comes to what gear is available and suggestions on what is needed for different trips. Chances are you know all about it but just in the off chance that you don't. http://www.advrider.com/

I bike camp every year and every year my gear changes a little. I am definately getting lighter and simpler with both bike and gear, I think this is a key to maximum enjoyment.
