road "toruing" pack questions
so i am likely going to go on several 5 day trips and such this summer and was wondering how i pack the tent and such onto the bike, will it be able to fit into panniers or do i just put it on the back rack which would that fit along with my trunk bag that i am likely to getand also is there any recomendation for a 1 person tent i could buy(somewhat cheap). I am new when it comes to this so any advice would be greatly appreciated

Some people in this forum travel so light they don't even carry saddle bags, much less tents.
The touring forum is the best place to ask this question

i jam my thumbs up and back into the tubes. this way i can point my fingers straight out in front to split the wind and attain an even more aero profile, and the usual fixed gear - zen - connectedness feeling through the drivetrain is multiplied ten fold because my thumbs become one with the tubing.
