Please chime in with anything you would definitely ditch from this list.

-7 tshirts
-3 sleeveless shirts
-8 pairs of socks
-6 pairs of boxer shorts
-1 pair jeans
-1 pair athletic shorts
-1 light hooded sweater
-1 pair quickdry pants with zip-off legs
-3 long sleeve warmish shirts
-2 pairs cargo shorts
-2 pairs cycling shorts
-1 toque
-a very light thin long sleeved shirt and pants for a base layer

I had originally packed much lighter, but my friend with more touring experience said I didn't have enough clothes and I should fill my front bags with them. I think it's too much and I'm not looking forward to chugging them over ontario's hills.
Ha! Good one dude!

You got a bunch of folks to take you seriously, and offer advice. I assume you're a phsychology student or something?

P.S. on the off chance that you're actually serious, that is waaaaaay too much partner. 6 friggin pairs of boxer shorts? HA! Good one dude.
