Bike touring is not very physical, but can be very mental. For four days, one change of clothes is fine. The weight of all your essentials should be around 30lbs split between the two of you. First tours, we all seem to take much too much stuff.

The craziest part of self supported touring is how grungy we get. Have a great ride. It'll be easy.
