Class run down of your complete kit plus the most honest opinion of a mini pump 🤣

[jeztv]

Great vid 🤸🥳 I agree re the one sided clipless pedals, as having the option to clip out can help alleviate knee issues on long trips. 😊

[sebastianzorrilla]

Excellent. Just like to add, that super glue can also be used to close small cuts fast.

[AlexandraVenture]

I'm planning for my first ever bike trip, and this was SO helpful. Can't wait to see more of your trip.

[iainb]

Good point on the folded pole length. I have always had to pack the pole/s seperately which has it's disadvantages.

[nm]

Can't wait to see that video of your trip

[yvonnebailey]

Very informative vlog. Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing your film on your adventure in Iceland.
Have a good trip soon.
Take care and stay safe.😊

[paulone-off]

Becky you are so organised, very impressive, so many items you took to keep the bike going shows how experienced you have become. Coffee is almost the first thing i consider, only the real stuff, not instant. So i need to get one of those filters, where did you get it from? I have a feeling the Iceland video is going to be awesome 😊

[michaelatkinson]

Hi Becks. Just those brief snippets have made me really look forward to seeing this trip. xx

[billogrady]

It's always good, beneficial to see how others 'load-out' for different regions and geographies, and to learn what was a lifesaver and what was useless! Bill O'

[NarnianRailway]

Amazed how much detail in selecting the proper equipment for a trip, pedals, seat, cleats, food, clothing, parts, etc a novice may not consider. Awesome and informative video to supplement the trip video. 🚴
(I consider the coffee a most critical item for any trip)

[staytrue]

I've been binge watching your videos today. You are an incredible lady. I hope to have a daughter that grows up to be like you one day ❤

[joeclow]

Congratulations on completing it, look forward to the video and seeing what you get up to next. It's all very inspiring and I imagine even more so for young women who watch your channel. 🤟🏻🙏

[Mike-zmbf]

A great no nonsense kit video Becky, I hadn't thought of the just in case spares needed for your bike. I'm looking forward to your trip videos.

[cruachan]

Can definitely recommend those Shimano hybrid pedals Becky, I have them on my gravel bike as I sometimes commute on it, just watch for the grub screws on the flat side working loose over time. Don't know if you could use one with the bar ends you have, but there are some OK cafe locks you can get which take the place of a bar end plug and save space. Not going to stop a determined thief obviously but does the job for a quick coffee or shop run.

Thanks for sharing. Always interesting to see what kit people pack, especially for trips where the weather can be severe. I love the look of my fully waterproof seat bag but unfortunately the tip of the bag rubbed against the seat post fitting and made a hole in the tip. Though the manufacturer repaired it but because of this and the fact I want lots of spare room for food on my next trips I'm planning to use tail fin for the rear and top tube. On my LEJOG I had to strap a supermarket bag on the front of my handlebar bag which wasn't ideal. Also want more storage for a warmer sleeping bag and puffy.

I'm the lucky owner of a 1990s Saunders two man Spacepacker tent. It's 2 kg but I can store my bike in one of the side alcoves. It's an awesome tent.

Interesting that you had some success with such a small solar panel. I'll reconsider. May also consider upgrading my GORE to a hooded jacket and purchasing more robust water proof trousers. On my LEJOG I packed ultralight trail running water proof trousers but they quickly wore and lost their waterproofness.

I have extra wide feet and was very lucky to find some shoes that were OK being a size oversized. But they are 2.5 season shoes and I need warmer shoes. Yes, I like cleats also. I love my peddles that are cleats one side and flats the other.

If all goes well I have my eye on GDMBR, trans America and Tour Aotearoa. I think the African and asian trans continentals are beyond me, , especially given the current political climate. I'd like to visit Iceland though I think bike-packing it would be beyond me. Looking forward to your vlog.

[Sozzled]

Lovely bike tour. That must have weighed a ton!

[Ballynoes]

Love watching your video's, your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep following your dreams.

[Straitjacket]

Nice bike Becky. Sounded like a fantastic trip. Can't wait to watch your video.

[belindaf]

Watching you keep pulling gear out of each bag had me wondering if you could teach Mary Poppins a thing or two! 😂 Just when I thought you surely couldn’t have anything else you pulled out half dozen more things. I’m no bike rider but I’m super impressed by organisation, you got me good Ms Becks… 😊 Power to you lil lady 💞
