Hello everyone, I am planning to go for bicycle tour to Europe all alone. So I need some advice on what to bring along with me, so will not be facing any trouble while touring. Thanks

Sheesh, this one gets my vote for SPTY (Saddest Post of the Year)

Here's the soundtrack to Mr. Lonely's European cycling trip:

I have a friend who's done a fair bit of bike touring and he says this is *the* website for researching a bike touring trip:

https://www.crazyguyonabike.com/

It compiles lots of trip journals from lots of different riders.

One of my friend's recent trips is recorded here: https://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/?o= ... 15412&v=B0

He told me many people have a gear list on their journal. If you'd like to speak with him, pm me and I'll put you in touch (he's here in Victoria).

Best,
Martin
