Longest Multi-day Trip

[Cruzergirl]

Here is the bike fully loaded. I am SO NOT minimalist. If I coulda strapped on my living room sofa... I would have done so.


BTW - I took so much crap for loading my bike up like this. But it worked for me.

my only problem with packing like this was I was always worried about things coming loose... if they're in my bag I don't worry about them... but when they're strapped to the top and bungee'd i'm constantly worry'n about them to be honest though... never once had a strap loose or lost anything on the road

I stopped being worried about shit within the first 100 miles...

Never anything worthwhile. A whopping 600 miles in two days. 150 miles down to visit a friend and take her for a ride. Rode back home the next day. Was talking to my brother and told him where I'd gone and he mentioned that he wanted to go watch a race down that way that night. So hopped on the bikes and went again. Watched the race, went to visit my friend again, then headed back home that night.

but you also had Drewpy to help notice if shit was getting loose... I'd catch a cross wind that make the tarp flap and I'd be like... and it'd be in my mind...

once I was riding with Rae, Kat, Trip, and Fatburg... it was weird... even though I was in the back a lot... but I didn't worry bout it.

Drewpy wouldn't notice if a turkey vulture was flying at his head, do you think he'd notice if I was losing anything?
