Well 3-4 days you can easily rough it to reduce weight. Winter riding usually pulls a few extra pounds on. I went on a 90 day tour with out a stove, to give you an idea of what I think roughing it is.



If your in Texas you should be able to easily plan for rain or no rain. I had many trips in AZ I never even brought a tent. I simply looked at the humidity level.


I suggest finding a few stores along the way. In case you need anything rather than carry it.
