Hi,
30 years ago I had a Scwinn Varsity. I decided I wanted to go to a weekend long open air rock concert up in NH. So I put an army surplus tent and bag and other junk on my bike and went there.
I don't even want to know how much it all weighed. I figure the tent. bike, and sleeping bag prob added up to 60 pounds. I had clothes,food, stove... I can remember going up a mountain and getting exhausted. I fell to the side to rest. I fell about 2 feet before I hit grass. When I cam back I had about an hour where I think I pedaled once. The music sucked, nice ride. That was my first bike tour, and the damn fool still does it.
