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
