G'day

My load (excluding the weight of the bike and trailer/bag) for a week long ride of the Mundi Biddi Track where I carried all my food for the week, would have been around 16 kg. I try to apply lightweight backpacking techniques (from my hiking) to my cycle touring as well.

If you want to learn more about lightweight backpacking, start with BackpackingLight Yahoo! group. A lot of the ideas can be transferred over to cycling.
