Behold, you see the packing efforts of this weekend which include: Rain gear (pants, jacket, gloves, covers for four pieces of luggage); Netbook and charger; camera and phone chargers; hostess gifts; brush; toiletries; armored jacket liner; armored pants liner; tire repair kit; multi-tool; 1 pair jeans; 1 pair yoga stretchy pants; flip flops; Birkenstock Bostons (clogs); long underwear top and bottom; socks and undies; 3 long sleeved shirts; five sleeveless shirts; light windbreaker; spare shield for helmet; tire pressure gauge. Thirty two pounds of luggage, 27 on the back and five on the front.I am very thankful that PJ helped push me over the edge on buying the saddlebags. There was no possible stinking way I could have gotten a decent haul together with just the little tail bag and tank bag. There will probably be a few more last minute things crammed in, but I'm adamant about one thing: no sink.

All you need is a tent and sleeping bag then you can escape civilization for a while...However I suggest losing the "hostess gifts," and replacing them with "Hostess Cupcakes!" yuuuuummmmm
ReplyDeleteThe hostess gifts aren't nearly as squooshy and pack much more easily in the tank bag. And besides, where in the world would a tent and bag fit? I'd be as unwieldy as a lumber bus!
