I'm glad I'm not the only one naming bicycles...

Bikeasaurus Rex, a 59cm 2011 Raleigh Port Townsend. Stolen once off my college campus, recovered through a mass Facebook / Local Outreach campaign, stripped of everything. Just built him back up after repairs.


Ultralight Touring Setup- Dry Run by Max Roman, on Flickr

80% loaded for a dry run, a few 50 mile rides and one night of camping. Going Ultralight, but I will have to test to see if this little gear is realistic for a 30 day tour. I'm assuming I'll wear one merino wool/synthetic outfit and wash it 3-4 times whenever we pass a laundromat, but I might chicken out and throw two Ortliebs on there. Planning on also using a very breathable backpack and lumbar pack to replace that blue DSLR bag.



The little hanging doohickey is a raincover.
