anyway we could get all kinds of arguememts on this subject lets stick to whats your best buy.
Would have to disagree with you on buying gear and talking, I prefer to spend more time touring.
And again when you talk of arguments, I don't consider talking and questioning someone's responses an argument, after all it was you who opened the whole thing up for debate by quoting and disagreeing with Rekmeyata.
If you were to total up how much your touring kit (inc bike, tent, panniers, sleeping bag and pad ,cooking equip, stove.) How much would it total up to?
